Drinks and Meals in the canteen – feedback fr from forms A number of reps requested that drinks be re-introduced to the canteen. Some felt the substitutes in the meal deal were not good enough, others talked about problems when students forget their water bottles. We are awaiting feedback from a meeting SLT had with the catering service. Students are keen to have larger portion sizes and alternatives to crackers as part of the meal deal if no water is available. A number of students want to see drinks offered again for any students that do forget their water bottle. We will raise this with SLT - this will be raised again as a concern
Safety in school Last half term students had asked what would happen if there was a serious incident/emergency at school and we discussed this in depth. This week we discussed the training which takes place at the start of each academic year with staff and with new staff to ensure that they are aware of the schools safeguarding procedures.
