Safeguarding Pupils with Medical Dietary Needs

Medical Dietary Requirements for School Meals

Derbyshire Catering Service believe that the provision of medical diets is an important part of the service we offer to pupils, parents/carers and schools.  All requests for medical diets must be accompanied by medical confirmation from a health professional. A bespoke menu will then be created to suit your child's requirements.
