The School Breakfast Bill was presented to Parliament by Emma Lewell-Buck MP on 13th October, 2020 and successfully passed its first reading. The date for the second reading of the Bill is uncertain due to the disruption of parliament during Covid-19.
6 children in every class of 30 are at risk of starting the day too hungry to learn. The School Breakfast Bill will give state funded primary and secondary schools the support they require to provide a free breakfast to pupils, where there is evidence of need, or where a specific request is made. This will ensure that children from disadvantaged backgrounds benefit fully from the education system and have the chance to reach their full potential, levelling up opportunities for young people across the country.
The Bill is supported by over 70 MPs from all parties and we want to continue to grow this number.
