One hot meal per school day changes attendance, especially in the afternoon. A look at three new canteens.
Three partner schools now have a canteen run by a parents' committee, trained and supported by our teams for the first six months.
The principle is simple: food is bought from nearby producers, meals are cooked on site, and the committee reports on spending every month.
Where canteens have been running for over a year, head teachers report noticeably steadier attendance in the afternoon.
