Southampton Head 'disgusted' by school meals
A head teacher from Southampton has asked "how difficult is it to bake a potato?" in a despairing letter to parents about the state of food at his own school.
Jason Ashley, head of Redbridge Community School, said meals served in its canteen were "completely unacceptable". He blamed caterers Chartwells for the issues and said he had no control over what was on offer to pupils.
Chartwells said there had been "operational challenges" and staffing issues at the school. The firm has apologised and promised an "immediate action plan".
Jason Ashley sat down with Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio Solent's Alun Newman.
