Training Overview:

Barnet Public Health, in partnership with Health Education Partnership (HEP), is pleased to invite you to the next Barnet School Food Network event.

The School Food Network has been established to provide schools with access to relevant school food updates, examples of good practice, opportunities for peer learning, and support to help strengthen school food provision across the borough.

The focus and agenda for this event will be shaped by feedback gathered through our recent survey of school food leads and existing network members. This approach ensures that the session reflects the priorities, challenges and areas of interest identified by schools themselves.

Further details regarding the programme and speakers will be shared once survey findings have been reviewed.

What You Can Expect
Whilst the final agenda is still being developed, the event will provide opportunities to:

• Hear updates on local and national school food developments.
• Share experiences, challenges and examples of good practice.
• Influence future School Food Network activity and support offers.
• Connect with colleagues from schools across Barnet.
• Learn about resources, initiatives and opportunities that can support your setting.

• Increase awareness of current school food priorities and developments.
