Teachers across the UK almost unanimously agree (97%) that children will have more success and better results at school – if they eat breakfast before classes begin, according to a study.
Teaching staff believe that as many as one in three (34%) of their pupils do not eat anything before coming to school for the day – and 72% notice a marked difference between students who do eat, and those who don't.
Youngsters who eat their first meal of the day before school are more engaged with the lessons, able to concentrate better, and seem positive and happier to be in the class.
