Welsh Government Admits Free School Meals Failing

The Welsh government has acknowledged that the current system for providing free school meals to students is failing. This comes after reports of numerous children going hungry or receiving inadequate meals at school.

Education Minister, Jane Thomas, has stated that changes need to be made in order to ensure that all students who are eligible for free school meals are receiving nutritious and sufficient meals each day. The government is now working on implementing a new system that will address these issues and ensure that no child goes hungry at school.

This admission of failure has sparked outrage among parents and educators, who have been calling for reform of the free school meals program for years. The government’s acknowledgment of the problem is seen as a step in the right direction, but many are demanding immediate action to address the issue.

It remains to be seen what specific changes will be implemented and how soon they will be put into place. In the meantime, advocacy groups are continuing to push for improvements to ensure that all children have access to healthy meals while at school.
