The Food for Life Partnership Mark is an action framework and award scheme to help schools and their communities transform their food culture.

Find out more about the award scheme:


Getting started

The first step is to enrol online - this only takes 5 minutes.

If your school meals are supplied by a private contractor or local authority caterer, you will need to involve your caterer.

Once enrolled, you'll have your very own page on this site to record your progress against the award criteria, maintain a blog and upload photos. This is a great way for parents and the community to see your activity - any areas where you need support!
