Key Lessons from Schools Working to Change School Food Environments

The brief, Key Lessons from California Schools Working to Change School Food Environments, shares the collective learning from The California Endowment’s experience supporting work to improve school food, especially early lessons from The Endowment’s Healthy Eating, Active Communities (HEAC) program. The document provides communities and school districts with the opportunity to learn from the experience gained in California. Key issues, achievements, challenges and solutions are presented based on the experience of California public health, nutrition and research professionals working to make healthy eating part of the daily lives of children while they are in school.

On a more colorful note, here is video about the Transformation of School Food in England. Celebrity chef JAMIE OLIVER talks about the state of childrens health in the UK. Also features Alice Waters and Kelly Brownell.
