Mr Tan Dhesi, MP for Slough, addressed the critical issue of children going hungry in schools due to years of mismanagement by Conservative Governments. He emphasised the importance of investing in breakfast clubs as a first step towards fixing the foundations of the country and supporting working people across the UK. According to the Sutton Trust, 38% of state school teachers have observed an increase in pupils coming to school hungry, highlighting the urgent need for free breakfast clubs. Dhesi also noted that one in ten young people lives in a household classified as food insecure, with children from families using food banks attaining GCSE grades half a grade lower on average during the pandemic. He pointed out that working parents are struggling under tough economic conditions, and stressed the financial benefits of universal free breakfast clubs for families. Dhesi also highlighted evidence from Wales where universal free breakfast clubs have been rolled out, showing improved healthy eating habits and increased attainment among pupils aged seven onwards. He called on the Minister to assure him that universal breakfast clubs will not only provide a healthy meal but also facilitate social skill development. Lastly, he emphasised the need for new legislation to fully implement free breakfast clubs in all state schools.
