At St Gregory's in Smethwick pupils and teachers have come up with a clever way of learning about food. They meet animated character Charles Chickens and his friends.

Some have no idea what a healthy meal looks like and getting them to try something different can be a struggle! Join us as we follow parents throughout the country investigating and getting to grips with their children's diets, from encouraging healthier choices at school and at home, through shopping and cooking with your children, to getting involved at school to make sure your child is getting the right foods at lunchtime. We'll show you some of the many parents already supporting positive changes in their local schools. Parents and carers have a crucial role to play in ensuring that the government's new food standards are successful in improving children's health and performance in schools right across the country. This programme will help you understand what those standards are. The voice of parents and carers is crucial in the implementation of these new guidelines."@en
