Help Make Your School Safer for Pupils with Food Allergies
Food allergens can present a serious risk in schools, particularly wherever food is stored, prepared, served or consumed. Effective allergen management relies on clear procedures, good communication and strong awareness among staff and pupils.
- Schools in England are expected to strengthen their approach to allergy awareness and management as part of the Department for Education's new statutory allergy guidance linked to the introduction of Benedict's Law. This includes having clear procedures for identifying and managing allergens, reducing the risk of cross-contamination, providing accurate food information where appropriate, and raising allergy awareness.
- Clear signs, labels, posters and record-keeping tools provide a simple and affordable way to support these procedures. Used alongside staff training, supervision and a wider allergy safety policy, they can help make good allergen management part of everyday school life.
WHY ALLERGEN SAFETY MATTERS IN SCHOOLS
Food-induced allergic reactions can be extremely serious. In busy school kitchens, dining halls, classrooms and food technology areas, mistakes such as poor ingredient identification, shared utensils or inadequate separation can increase the risk of allergen cross-contact.
Effective allergen management helps schools create consistent processes for identifying allergens and communicating important information. Visual prompts and simple record-keeping tools can reinforce those processes at the point where they matter most.
· Improve allergen awareness among staff and pupils
· Help reduce the risk of allergen cross-contact
· Reinforce staff training and agreed procedures
· Keep important allergen information visible
· Encourage more consistent food preparation and handling practices
· Support a wider whole-school approach to allergy safety

SUPPORTING SCHOOL ALLERGEN MANAGEMENT
Practical Tools to Support a Wider Allergy Safety Policy
Signs, labels, posters and food safety records should not be presented as a replacement for training, supervision or documented procedures. Their value is in helping schools put those procedures into everyday practice by keeping information and reminders visible at the point of use.
The Department for Education's school allergy guidance provides the wider context for strengthening allergy awareness and management in schools. Food Standards Agency guidance and resources also provide an important basis for good allergen and food safety practices.
Natasha's Law provides additional context around accurate allergen information for foods that are Prepacked for Direct Sale (PPDS). Where applicable, PPDS foods must carry the name of the food and a full ingredients list with regulated allergens emphasised.
