Schools are being offered the opportunity to apply for £1,000 grants for breakfast clubs.
To mark the 20th anniversary of its Breakfast Club programme, Kelloggs is giving a £1,000 grant away every school day of 2018.
The scheme marks , which has provided £3 million of investment to schools and 70 million bowls of cereal since 1998.
Research shows that breakfast clubs help with everything from attendance and attainment to alleviating hunger and providing pre-school care.
They are a lifeline for many teachers as 68 per cent of teachers believe pupils would struggle to concentrate in class without their breakfast club, according to a report by Kellogg’s.
Kate Prince, from Kellogg’s, said: “We believe all children should have the opportunity to start the day with breakfast so we’re proud to have spent 20 years supporting so many schools across the UK.”
“The £1,000 we’re offering in 2018 underpins our pride and continuing commitment to our breakfast club programme.”
