A healthy diet should be healthy not just for the people who eat the food but those who grow and produce it! They should receive a living wage as well as health and safety protection.
Schools can promote healthy eating and go that bit further by providing and encouraging fair trade healthy snacks.
Tuck shops can be a fun and healthy starting point for pupils to learn about fair trade and purchase fair trade products with their own money.
As part of each school's criteria for reaching fair trade status the items below can be made available in the tuck shop.
You can bring in a Fairtrade snack for break time or have Fairtrade products in your lunch box if you bring a packed lunch to school.
