Free school lunches for infant students

School Age Kids
Britain’s Deputy Prime Minister is to announce the introduction of a free school meal scheme in schools for infant children.
The £600million plan is expected the save families an average of £437 a year per child. Under the current system, free school meals are limited to 400,000 of the poorest families.
Nick Clegg will tell delegates today that he believes ‘every primary school pupil should be able to sit down to a hot, healthy lunch”.
What do you think? Is the proposal a good idea? Do you think the money should be spent elsewhere?
