DSSF SCHOOL PLAN OF ACTION FOR NUTRITION

I. RATIONALE
The School based feeding program is a cost-effective intervention for resource-poor students of DSSF. The feeding program
aims to provide timely support and preventive measures to improve the health of school children, which can be associated with their
cognitive development, learning, and academic performance. Stakeholders at different tiers can play significant roles in the program
implementation and its success. Their perceptions are equally important to provide information on the factors influencing the
implementation process and help to identify the gaps in the process. However, the evidence is scarce on the school health and nutrition
policy and program implementation in developing nation.
Schools have been a powerful setting to promote health programs, teachers are available than health care institutions and
workers. Many school-aged children in our school are affected by treatable and preventable illness. School children’s ill health can be
associated with poor cognitive development, learning, and academic performance. Thus, the feeding program aims to provide timely
support and preventive measures to improve the health of school children.

 IV. MONITORING AND EVALUATION
The School based Feeding Program is strictly implemented and monitored periodically from the Planning up to the
sustainability program. Where nutritional parameters were checked and monitored regularly. The Nutrition Coordinator will be
the one to perform the schedule and implementation of the whole duration of the feeding program.

V. SUSTAINABILITY

In order to ensure SFP’s are more sustainable, we should be made ‘comprehensive’, so that we can do much more
than deliver food to children. For example, SFPs could incorporate efforts to increase local food production, food processing
and utilizing our fish rearing capacity. The SFP’s team should investigate the potential of communities to continue with the
SFP initiative but using local resources. From the perspective of the individual beneficiary, the sustainable aspect of the
program was likely to be the lasting impact on behavior change brought about through accessing education or other
interventions that are part in the feeding program.
