I am hoping to determine the popularity of hot school meals, ahead of a wider roll-out in the autumn term 2024.
For the academic year 2023 - 2024, please confirm:
A
The names of the schools at which hot meals were provided.
B
The total number of pupils at each of these schools, broken down by school.

Please provide a table showing the percentage of pupils who ate a hot meal, rather than bringing their own lunch.

While it is not possible to provide a percentage of children who ate in each month, as this can vary on a daily basis, the total number of meals served per school on a monthly basis is recorded. The meal ordering system was updated in April 2024, with schools being onboarded in a staggered manner. Below is the total number of meals served for each school since April 2024.
