Sharon Hodgson MP, Labour’s Shadow Minister for Children and Families, responding to reports that Subway may open an outlet in a school in Manchester, said:

"Just days after Michael Gove launched a new school food review, we are now seeing fast food takeaways like Subway trying to move into our schools.

"The Government must get a grip on school food - a million and rising pupils are exempt from school food standards, we are seeing the return of junk food and vending machines and now takeaways in school."
