South molton community college students are eating too late into the day. Year ten students are having to eat lunch at 2pm, and not being given long to eat, sometime only ten minutes. The school day ends at 3:25pm that’s only an hour and a half after lunch.

Because it’s so late into the day students are hungry and all they can think about is food rather than their work. The school needs to change its structure of how the day works, so everyone gets to eat at a normal time. I think this would make students happier in general and leading to have a better day as students can work and think better on a full stomach.

After the school has a half term or a Christmas break students struggle coming back to school, as a lot of people have fallen into the habit of eating from 11:30-12:30am. Lunch time for some students is the first time they get to eat in their day. Children should eat at a reasonable time just as anyone should.
