§ Ms ShipleyTo ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if the pilot breakfast clubs set up by the Government are going to be extended. [18213]
§ Ms BlearsI have been asked to reply.
The Department has funded the piloting of over 250 breakfast clubs across England as part of an evaluation of their effectiveness. In addition, many breakfast clubs have been funded from a variety of different sources. The piloting is now complete and we will be considering the results of the evaluation and assessing the implications for future breakfast club provision in the context of our wider food in schools programme.
