in the new semester, primary and secondary school students in beijing will no longer have to eat boxed lunches. all primary and secondary schools that provide off-campus meals will have "bucket meals delivered to classes".beijing municipal education commission introduced that new campus meal management regulations have been fully implemented, including the unified provision of non-disposable tableware, the implementation of a system of school leaders accompanying students during meals, and the promotion of the construction of smart canteens, so that students can eat more nutritiously and healthily at school.
it is certainly a good thing that school leaders eat with students. the accompanying meal system is not just about school leaders eating with children. its fundamental purpose is to ensure the safety and nutrition of students' meals and improve the quality of campus meals.by accompanying students during meals, school leaders can directly understand the taste, hygiene and nutritional balance of the meals, pay attention to the details of the students' meals, and conduct real-time supervision and feedback.
as early as 2019, the ministry of education and three other departments jointly issued the "regulations on school food safety and nutrition and health management", which clearly stated that primary and secondary schools and kindergartens should establish a system of accompanying students for centralized meals, and that relevant school leaders should eat with students at every meal, keep records of accompanying students, and promptly discover and solve problems in the centralized dining process. it can be seen that all aspects of society attach great importance to school food safety and nutrition and health management.
whether children eat well in school has always been the focus of social attention. especially the lunch of primary and secondary school students is the top priority. it is undeniable that schools also face some more realistic problems, such as "economic" reasons. for school canteen operators or food suppliers, it is impossible not to consider costs.
but in general, parents and students are not too demanding about school meals, and they mainly focus on nutritional balance. meals can be home-cooked or affordable, but they must be hygienic and tasty. therefore, the key question is how to protect this "red line" with institutional management? today, the implementation of the meal-accompanying system requires the principal to take responsibility and ensure that students eat well and have enough food, which is actually what the public wants to see.
of course, we should also see that while it is important for school leaders to accompany students at meals, it is not enough to rely on school leaders alone to completely solve the food safety problem of campus meals. according to regulations, canteens independently operated by schools "should adhere to the principle of public welfare and not be for profit." so how to ensure this? although there is internal supervision between many schools and canteens, if there is a lack of external supervision, it may also bring hidden dangers to food safety. in recent years, a series of canteen food safety issues that have sparked heated discussions in public opinion have shown that only by ensuring the effectiveness of supervision can relevant personnel be urged to do their work well.
therefore, it is a good thing for school leaders to accompany their children during meals, but more forms of external supervision also need to be introduced to ensure that children can eat safely and with peace of mind.whether school meals are safe and hygienic is never a trivial matter. it should be noted that there are more than 150 million primary and secondary school students eating in school canteens in my country. considering such a large number of diners, the management of school canteens is particularly important. only through a diversified supervision mechanism can an effective food safety guarantee system be established.
