(BBC) Primary school pupils expecting halal meat may have been served food which breached the Islamic rule due to a failure in checks, a school has said.
In June, it was discovered some meat served to pupils at Outwood Primary Academy Greenhill may not have been halal despite menus stating it was.
The head of the Wakefield school said the certification of the meat was not checked during initial processes.
The trust said steps had been taken to ensure it did not happen again.
The school had previously been overseen by Wakefield Council but transferred to Outwood Grange Academies Trust in September 2022 after being given an “inadequate” Ofsted rating.
