Success Stories

The School Feeding component is designed to encourage enrolment and attendance among all children but with particular emphasis on girls. School feeding will be strongly linked to the learning process for the achievement of educational objectives. All children will receive a nutritious wet meal upon arrival at school to be consumed there under the supervision of schoolteachers and regular monitoring by members of the PTA/PCSC and SFMC.

Studies of school feeding programmes around the world have shown that children who receive a mid-morning snack or meal perform more effectively than those who are hungry. Moreover, school feeding programmes have significantly increased enrolment and school attendance and reduced drop out rates.
