This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action. We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.

The Government already publishes standards for school food in England. All meals provided in schools, as well as lunch parcels provided to pupils eligible for free school meals during the national lockdown, must meet these standards. See:
www.gov.uk/government/publications/covid-19-free-school-meals-guidance/covid-19-free-school-meals-guidance-for-schools

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do, if there are specific actions you would like the Government or Parliament to take.
