Paul Whiteman, general secretary of school leaders’ union NAHT, said:
“The government’s constantly changing, badly thought out and last-minute schemes to help with holiday hunger during the Covid crisis are leaving families and children anxious that they literally don’t know where their next meal is coming from.
"The government must urgently clarify for families how they will be helped during the upcoming half term holiday so they can be assured that they will not go hungry. It is shameful that this is even something we are having to worry about in this country.”
