Description

Bidders are expected to demonstrate how they will provide a consistently positive pupil experience across both models—maintaining quality, nutrition, food safety and allergen controls—while working collaboratively with schools and the Trust, supporting wellbeing and sustainability, and contributing to the Trust’s aim to help all pupils and school communities to flourish.
