Thomas Adams Lunchtime changed on 6/9/2017 from 12:25 - 13:15 to 13:35 - 14:10.
Why you should sign:
- Some children don't have a lot/ anything for breakfast.
- Only 45 minutes for over 1,400 students to eat.
- Children can't concentrate if they're hungry.
- Kids are more likely to not eat a lunch.
- Food is wasted because pupils are rushed.
- Too many children are in the canteen at break, so some students aren't able to eat at break.
- Some pupils need to eat at certain times, due to medical conditions.

The petition reached 100 signatures today. I am currently drafting a formal letter to the school administration to request a review of the current lunch schedule.

Why are children finishing their lunch an hour before home time!!! Its like doing a full days work and your boss saying I'm changing your lunch i know you finish at 5.30 but now your lunch is 3.30 til 4.30. What idiots run the school !!! Hungry children no concentration
I totally agree I am wasting money on food my son doesn't get chance to eat! Some meal times the bell goes for afternoon lessons before he had even paid for his dinner. They get told to stay and finish but they feel uncomfortable and rush.
My daughter has a metabolic disorder and has to eat regular meals! If she doesn't it it's dangerous! 45minutes to feed over 1000 students is ridiculous!!!! I send my child to that school in good faith that she will be safe andcared for!
I work in the kitchen and we were not asked for an option to the change of the lunch time period. I have colleagues who have children to pick up from school as well as colleagues who have other employment. We are struggling!
My son didn't have lunch for the first 3 days of the new school year. Even now he doesn't get time to eat his lunch by the time he's got through the ques. I'm wasting money and schools wasting food. Not a happy parent when he comes home starving saying he hasn't had anything to eat.

My son has been in school for the last 5 years and this term for first time he stop eating his dinner. He said it was because of the new changes. I'm not very happy about it an worried as I think kids need to eat to be able to perform and concentrate.
