The BC School Food Toolkit is a website that was developed to support schools in creating and maintaining healthy school food environments. It includes guidance to support schools in their efforts to provide nutritious foods for students through their Feeding Futures programs.
The BC School Food Toolkit:
- is designed for those who are responsible for making meal planning and food purchasing decisions on behalf of a school food program.
- provides guidance on nutrition to help determine the types of foods offered, sold, or served to students within school food programs.
- offers resources and suggestions to help school food programs:
- meet the nutrition and diverse food needs of students,
- support students in developing a positive relationship with food, and
- foster an inclusive school food environment
- is voluntary, and
- is intended to support schools/districts to make smalls shifts when and where possible.
For information on how to start or grow a school food program, please visit the Build a School Food Program website.
