DIET & ALLERGENS

We take dietary and allergen requirements seriously

Plate of fish fingers

We know how stressful mealtimes can be when you're living with an allergy.

Even mild allergies can often leave your choices severely limited - making mealtimes boring and repetitive.

 

At Forerunner, our data shows that the vast majority have found that the vast majority of allergens in our schools are either Dairy, Egg or Gluten related. 

 

So, between the main meal, the vegetarian meal and jacket potato, we make sure that at least one main option caters to these allergens every day.

 

Each meal on the menu is labelled with a  G, D, or E, indicating that it is Gluten, Dairy or Egg Free. 

For any other allergen or special dietary requirements, we are more than happy to liaise directly with the parents.
