For Abraham
Deepdive – Pilot design | There are a few key design questions we still need to
validate before we launch
Outstanding questions / missing data points Question answered / validated FOR DISCUSSION PRELIMINARY

Key questions for validation before launch Status Commentary


• What is the process for parents to agree to participate in the program? • All students are mandated to be apart of the school meal programme

pilot can launch? • To launch the school milk programme, will need to have at least 50% buy-in
