From Checkpoint, 4:45 pm today

A group representing more than 2000 principals is calling on the government to ditch its new school lunch provider and fund schools to deliver their own lunches locally. In a letter to David Seymour, the Principals Federation said the company hasn't delivered on the Minister's expectations or theirs and it notes one disturbing aspect is the huge increase in wastage reported by schools. Associate Minister of Education David Seymour spoke to Lisa Owen.
