Headteacher refuses to feed children who are ‘more than a penny in debt to school’
Pupils whose meal accounts are more than a penny in debt at a school will be left without food at lunchtime.
The severe warning was issued in a letter to parents sent by Neil Foden – the strategic head of Ysgol Dyffryn Nantlle in Penygroes, Gwynedd – as part of an approach recommended by the local council.
i have no idea what the theory was behind this because it was also the only way to get a peanut butter sandwich so it basically became a poverty penalty food.
@icedquinn fast forward to 2021 if someone has a peanut allergy what would happen.

what do we do about starving kids!!!
stop teaching them about whites bad and teach them how to skin a fish and grow a potato?School is the only thing keeping adults from being dumber than they already are... and they are pretty damn dumb most of the time.
That said I'd be all about including survival skills in school along side traditional subjects. I also think we need a major reform on how we teach kids in the first place.
Yeah there are schemes in the UKto teach kids about money, saving etc.
But yes survival skills would be good, how to survive without a mobile phone, how to read a map (paper) how to cope with zero electricity.
Oh and most important teach common sense.
