Food safety policies and procedures are essential to ensure students are provided with food that is safe to consume. In this section you will find resources such as policies, templates and fact sheets to assist with this.
It is best practice to have a Food Safety Supervisor on staff regardless of whether or not schools are required to. QAST run accredited Food Safety Supervisor training regularly and have a free on line Food Handlers course for staff and volunteers on the training page.
