FixOurFood in Schools Survey

FixOurFood School Survey

We are building a network of primary schools in Yorkshire to be part of an exciting project to transform the Yorkshire food system for dietary and planetary health. This network will provide valuable input to our research and have the opportunity to engage with farmers, businesses and local authorities to ensure good quality, sustainable food is eaten by children in schools and early year settings.

This survey will take approximately 10-15 minutes to complete. There are 12 questions.

This survey is best accessed through a computer or laptop rather than a mobile device.
