Catering

We are delighted to partner with the students, teachers, and staff within Cabot Learning Federation.
Our aim, along with the schools’, is to provide all students with an exceptional catering experience. Our very talented Chef Managers and our fantastic catering teams will be serving exciting menus packed with healthy ingredients, that are full of variety, and with loads of interesting new things to try. It’s important that the food tastes as good as it looks, and we’re sure you won’t be disappointed.
What’s on the menu?
Innovate has long been considered the most inventive school caterer and that’s because we’re very clear about our food. All our dishes are prepared every day using quality, fresh and seasonal ingredients that are responsibly sourced. As well as ensuring the food on the plate is healthy, we want our customers to understand the importance of eating the right foods and help them with their food and nutrition journey.
- A huge selection of ‘grab and go’ items including baguettes, paninis, burritos and salads to name a few.
- A variety of healthy, tasty main meals prepared fresh every day from carefully selected ingredients. The menu will follow a similar weekly pattern, so you know what to expect, providing over 35 choices each day in addition to the ever-popular chef specials, themed events and loyalty schemes.
- Our Street Vibesrange, global street food that tours the world. It’s always changing, from Korean fried chicken or Chinese bao buns, to Greek souvlaki, there’s always something new to try!
- A salad bar bursting with flavour, from traditional garden salads through to composite salads with a wide variety of grains, proteins, and dressings
- Theme Days – We’re travelling around the world! We’ll go to different regions each half term, with 3 days of special dishes alongside Street Vibes street food for the whole half term. There are also lots of individual special days and promotions that will run throughout the year!
I have a free school meal allowance, what can I have?
We want to ensure that all of our customers have access to a healthy, nutritious meal. With this in mind, we have some meal deals in place. These include the hot main meal offer, a hot wrap or the chef’s special with a hot dessert.
We have also developed our “Chill Deal”, four items can be purchased for the free school meal price. Cold items such as filled rolls, crudites, fruit pots, etc. (Usually priced at £1.10 each) can be bundled together at the free school meal price. However, students can purchase any items they wish that fall within the free school meal allocation, including the breakfast and break time offer at the school.
Tell us what you think
Once you’ve tried our service, let us know what you think. Drop us an email at hello@impactfood.co.uk to tell us about your dining experience.
We also run regular customer and parent surveys which are sent out via the school: with the results being used to improve our service and adapt our menus.
We look forward to seeing you soon!

Our Planet
We work closely with our clients and suppliers to be as environmentally friendly as we can. By making lots of small changes, we can make a big difference.
