Jamaica has taken steps to ensure children are healthy and ready to learn with the new National School Nutrition Policy, which will be implemented in all early childhood, primary, secondary, and special education schools. It limits the sale and marketing of sugary drinks and ultra-processed foods in schools and mandates nutrition education. The cabinet-approved policy outlines what is necessary to promote healthy eating and active living in all Jamaican schools. The government says it will ensure students have safe and nutritious food access by strengthening the school-feeding program and fostering partnerships among schools, families, farmers, vendors, and communities to build a culture of wellness.
