  • Breakfast Clubs in Primary Schools
    Breakfast Clubs in Primary Schools 1. Background 1.1 Glasgow City Council introduced breakfast clubs in all primary schools across the city a number of years ago. The objective was to provide children with the best possible start to the day. 1.2 Children can come into school from 8.15 am. They are able to have fruit, cereal and toast. There are at least two members of staff from Cordia. Education Services pay for the service at a total cost of £2.4 million. (tbc) 1.3 In the February 2010 budget, it was agreed that breakfast would be provided free to those children who were entitled to a free school meal. All other children would be charged 50p. The charge was introduced in August 2010. 1.4 Following the charge, a small number of written complaints were received in Education Services. Mainly from working parents who had more than one child and who earned just over the threshold for entitlement to free school meals. They felt very strongly that they were being penalised for working. 2. Uptake 2.1 Following the introduction of charging for breakfast, numbers taking breakfast have declined. 2.2 In October 2010, 45 primary schools have an uptake of less than 10% of the school roll. 85 primary schools have an uptake of between 10 and 19.9% of the school roll. 14 primary schools have an uptake of more than 20% of the school roll. 2.3 Appendix 1 contains a list of all the schools ordered by percentage uptake. 3. Future provision 3.1 Glasgow City Council is committed to meeting the needs of the most vulnerable and targeting resources to most need.
