Oswestry Food
What Makes Our Food Special
Freshly Prepared On Site: All meals are made daily by our dedicated team of in-house chefs.
- Fresh Ingredients: 90% of our dishes are created from fresh, quality ingredients.
- Locally Sourced Produce: We work closely with local suppliers wherever possible to ensure freshness and sustainability.
- Responsibly Sourced Meat & Eggs:
- We use only free-range eggs.
- Our ham is sourced from a single trusted farm—Houghton Hams Wiltshire Ham—accredited by the British Meat Processors Association charter standard.
- All UK-sourced meat carries the Red Tractor label, assuring high standards of welfare, traceability, and food safety, with no growth hormones or antibiotic residues.
- Varied Menus: Our menus operate on a three-week rotation to offer variety, seasonality, and balance (see sample menus below.)
- Healthy Recipes: We minimise salt, sugar, and saturated fats in our cooking, while incorporating whole grains and plant-based proteins to encourage a well-rounded diet.
Catering for All Needs
With a community of over 450 pupils and staff, we take dietary needs seriously. We accommodate a wide range of requirements, including gluten-free, lactose intolerance, Halal, vegetarian, and vegan diets. Each meal is carefully briefed to the catering team to ensure individual needs are met with care and precision.
Quality You Can Trust
We’re committed to upholding the highest standards of food quality, safety, and nutrition:
- External Audits: We undergo two independent audits each year and consistently receive ratings of Excellent.
- Environmental Health: We are proud to hold a 5-Star rating from Shropshire Council’s Environmental Health Department.
- Pupil Feedback: We listen to our students. Termly feedback meetings allow pupils to share their views—and many of their suggestions are reflected in future menus.
