'''School breakfast club'''

A School breakfast club is a provision for children to eat a healthy breakfast in a safe environment before their first class. The term "breakfast club" is commonly used to describe such facilities in the [[United Kingdom]].
<center>[[File:Scalogo1(png).png|30px]] '''CASwiki needs your support''' [[File:Greensmiley2.jpg|30px]] Please [[Join community action for sustainability#How to help|help out on CASwiki]] [[File:240px-Smiley.svg.png|30px]]</center><br>
<div style="padding: .4em .4em .4em .4em;margin-bottom: .4em; background:#90EE90; border:1px solid #b9ffb9;"><center>


Breakfast clubs are generally considered to enhance both academic performance and behavior, especially for children whose parents might not otherwise be able to afford to provide them with regular meals. Breakfast provision is however less prevalent compared with school lunch, both in the UK and worldwide. As of 2013, only about half the school children in the UK have access to a breakfast club.

Attendance of a breakfast club is not mandatory; many parents prefer to feed their children at home. The clubs are often run by schools, but can also be community run. Schools themselves are the most common location for breakfast clubs, but they can also be found in churches, community halls or even commercial premises. Breakfast clubs are sometimes open to children from more than one school. {{W|School breakfast club}}
