Written Question
Breakfast Clubs: Reading
Wednesday 12th February 2025

Asked by: Paulette Hamilton (Labour - Birmingham Erdington)

Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what steps her Department plans to take to encourage pupils to read at breakfast clubs in primary schools.

Answered by Stephen Morgan - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Education)

The department wants to give schools the flexibility to deliver their breakfast club in the way that best meets the needs of their pupils, as well as their parents and local community, and gets the school day off to a strong start.

The non-statutory guidance for early adopters will help schools on how they go further than just the minimum requirements, including ways to incorporate enriching activities into a breakfast club.

The early adopter schools will test and learn how to deliver new breakfast club provision, and the learning from these, including on enrichment, will inform a national rollout.
