Testimonials

We (the school) are extremely happy with the varied choice of
healthy, attractive and nutritional food on offer.

Mr A Difinizio, Principal, Bristol Brunel Academy (first BSF School to open in the UK)

Since the changeover to ISS Caterhouse there has been a significant improvement and wider range of healthy options. There has been an increase in the uptake of meals and the children are enjoying their food more. There is far less waste now.

Ms Mary Keeble, Head Teacher, St Mary Magdalene

the number of packed lunches has decreased since ISS Caterhouse took over, the standard of food is always improving and I am very happy

Mr E Dunphy, Head Teacher, St James the Great Primary School

ISS Caterhouse appreciates how children vary in their tastes and always looks into ways of increasing the range of dishes that they offer. Good nutrition is about eating a wide range of food types. We receive an excellent service. The kitchen staff are punctual, efficient, thorough and very helpful, easy and uncomplicated to deal with. In summary, the service is excellent. ISS Caterhouse offer a friendly, helpful service and we would continue to use them and not hesitate in recommending them to other schools and establishments

ISS Caterhouse’s professionalism has been invaluable to the consortium during the mobilisation period and have delivered a catering solution which is vibrant, setting the benchmark for other operators in the educational field to meet.

Terry Rolfe, General Manager Education, Skanska Rashleigh Weatherfoil (Private Sector Partner, Bristol BSF)

Please pass on to the staff that we are seeing a dramatic improvement in quality. Meatballs drew universal praise across the borough. We will be in touch with a formal response soon but our initial impressions are excellent. Staff are to be congratulated! I personally loved the pizza served with leeks, red peppers and salad with fruit salad including -never seen in a Merton school before- melon, kiwi and grapes!

Jackie Schneider, Chair of Merton Parents for Better Food in School (www.mertonparents.co.uk)

At Dog Kennel Hill School we have been delighted with the service we have received from ISS Caterhouse Catering over the last year. The menus are popular with children and adults alike and reflect the current concerns of all of us that our children should eat as healthily as possible. The interesting menus also reflect the ethnicity of our children’s backgrounds. ISS Caterhouse staff are always very responsive and willing to talk about menus and any aspect of the school meals service. Since changing to ISS Caterhouse, as

well as improving our menus, the staff of ISS Caterhouse have worked exceptionally well with our cook and kitchen staff. We have received excellent support and help during the year, particularly in our move to a temporary kitchen in preparation for a brand new kitchen in August. ISS Caterhouse provides an excellent meals service to our school. I only wish we had employed ISS Caterhouse earlier! I have no hesitation in recommending them most highly

Ms Pat Boyer, Head Teacher, Dog Kennel Hill Primary School

ISS Caterhouse service is commendable and their dedication to provide freshly prepared quality meals to our children is excellent. We look forward to working with ISS Caterhouse in the future through the development of exciting menus and increasing the number of pupils taking school meals
