Recognise and Raise Awareness of the role of the School Canteen.
Food Safety & Hygiene In School Canteen's.
Food Safety and Hygiene in School Canteen's.
All canteens have a responsibility to provide safe food. Safe food means that it is prepared, cooked, transported and served in such a way as to retain nutrients, and to minimise bacterial contamination and growth. Handling food poorly can cause food poisoning. It can also reduce the quality of the food being served, to the School Children.
Does the School Management Carry out Food Safety Inspections .Whilst carrying out inspections, The management Should focus on a wide range of issues including:
- cleanliness
- temperature control
- hygiene and food handling practices
- pest control
- construction and maintenance of the premises
- waste storage and general compliance with the Food Standards Code.
School Management, should ensure they have implemented safe food handling practices in the School Canteen,& make sure that the Canteen is Selling healthy foods to children.
Thank you,
