We the undersigned are requesting an up to date discussion and review by the Trustees, the School & Parent Governors in conjunction with the Senior Leadership Team at Willow Primary School on Halal meal options at lunch times.

We understand the last discussion regarding this matter was over 5 years ago and feel that attitudes have since changed and the matter needs an up to date review.

There are many schools in Slough (and in neighbouring boroughs) with a significantly lower Muslim demographic than Willow Primary School, yet these schools offer Halal meals and are inclusive to religious dietary restrictions.

We feel strongly that Willow Primary should at least consider whether they could offer a Halal meal option on some days perhaps twice a week.

We are also requesting that a "Pasta" option be introduced everyday, or as a substitute for the "Jacket Potato" option as this is a far more popular choice amongst the EYFS and KS1 children. Gluten-Free Pasta would be ideal as an all inclusive option.

Neighbouring Schools (within a 2 mile radius) such as Claycots School (Town Hall Campus) offer a halal main option, a non halal main option, a sandwich of the day, a vegetarian main option as well as a jacket potato option.

We feel it is mandatory that Willow Primary School review their outdated and very limited school lunctime meal options.
