As mentioned in a recent newsletter, we have new a new catering services team overseeing the school meals at Marden from next term. A video screencast was shared with students this week, and letters sent home to parents and carers. You can watch the video below:
In December North Tyneside Council gave notice to all schools that they would no longer be providing a catering service and that with effect from the 1st April we would need to find a new provider.
The service was put out to tender early in the new year and we received three bids from potential providers. After a careful evaluation process Dolce was awarded the contract after scoring highly on all the key performance indicators. Dolce has promised a varied and exciting offer, there will be an expanded breakfast offer and at break and lunchtime students will be able to choose from a wide range of foods served from five different outlets each serving a different style of cuisine.
