Equality Impact Assessment (EQIA) for Setting the Table: Guidance Update

Title of policy:

Setting the Table

Summary of aims and desired outcomes of Policy:

This is an update to the existing Setting the Table guidance document. The aim of the updated guidance is to ensure that all eligible children aged 0–5 in childcare settings across Scotland are offered meals, snacks and drinks that continue to meet their nutritional requirements and that are conducive to good health. The primary audience of the revised guidance is providers and practitioners, including childminders, delivering funded and non-funded ELC. The updated guidance is aimed to be shorter, more concise and easier to follow, whilst providing readers with signposting to relevant sector guidance.
