School Meals

The school uses the catering service, Aspens

An overview of their service

We are passionate about great tasting food and offer a wonderful selection of choices, food that is not only nutritious but keeps students coming back for more. We believe that great tasting homemade wholesome food, produced using quality, locally sourced ingredients and served with care and passion are vital ingredients to a successful school meal service.

World Kitchen

We strongly believe in letting our recipes and menus be guided by the feedback we receive from our customers whilst taking into account nutritional advice. We are inspired by current food trends and popular dishes from around the world – which we often introduce as an exciting promotion. Every dish begins with a concept and a recipe, which is then prepared by our highly trained teams.

The links between food, health and learning are evident. Our carefully planned menus, with well balanced meals, not only help to sustain students throughout the day but can also help with concentration and behaviour – leading to a more productive school day.

Backing British Food

We offer quality, variety and choice – at an affordable price. We purchase our food responsibly through a transparent process and we are proud to buy from British farmers and producers. Our suppliers are checked and validated by NSF, a global leader in supporting businesses to buy from assured supply chains.

Buying British enables us to invest in local communities, reduce our food miles, and source a huge range of seasonal produce to incorporate into our menus. 

We have been awarded the ‘Food for Life’ Gold Catering Mark from the Soil Association for our menus and have accreditation from the British Hen Welfare Trust and Compassion in World Farming for our use of free-range eggs.
