Healthy school meals and educational outcomes

BELOT M, JAMES J. JOUR HEALTH ECON. 2011

Provides evidence on the effects of diet on educational outcomes, using a campaign lead in the UK in 2004, which introduced changes in the meals offered in schools – shifting from low-budget processed meals toward healthier options. Educational outcomes improved significantly in English and Science, and authorized absences, which are most likely linked to illness and health, fell by 14%.
