Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, when he plans to restart the school fruit and vegetable scheme; and whether he plans to extend that scheme to all primary school pupils.
This question was answered on 23rd September 2020
The School Fruit and Vegetable Scheme resumed in September when children returned to school. As before, all children in Key Stage 1 in state-funded primary schools will receive a free piece of fruit or vegetable every school day.
There are currently no plans to extend this scheme to all primary school pupils.
