Mum slams school's strict lunchbox rules that 'add £100 to monthly food shop'

mirror.co.uk:

A mum has hit out at her son's primary school for implementing strict guidelines over what parents are allowed to put in their children's lunchboxes.

Jennifer Louise Ireton says the rules (in full below) have added an extra £25 a week to her food shop and it's left her feeling worried that her son's food will be taken away if it doesn't match up to the criteria.

The rules outline an extensive list of how lunchboxes should be made up and the items the school ask not to be included, as well as stating that children should not bring in treats to mark their birthday as a non-school uniform day will be given to celebrate instead.
