School Meals

Lynne Jones: To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills if she will make it her policy to encourage all schools to show all existing and all new pupils the clip from Jamie Oliver's programme Jamie's School Dinners", where a group of pupils were given a demonstration of how processed chicken nuggets are made. [13553]

Jacqui Smith: Food education in both primary and secondary school teaches children about the importance of healthy eating. They learn about where food comes from and how it is processed through food technology, science and PSHE. They also learn about diet, nutrition, food safety and hygiene, practical food preparation and cooking.

The DfES does not specify educational resources or how subjects should be taught. Individual teachers use their professional judgement to select the resources that are most appropriate to the needs of their pupils, but TV clips such as this would certainly be a useful and engaging opportunity.

Lynne Featherstone: To ask the Secretary of State forEducation and Skills how many school children in Hornsey and Wood Green (a) receive free school mealsand (b) pay for schools meals, broken down by school. [13747]

Jacqui Smith: Information on pupils known to be eligible for free school meals is shown in the table. The number of pupils paying for school meals is not collected centrally.
