Are we missing a good definition for almost the same? Don’t keep it to yourself…
I had some difficulty choosing the right ones, so I bolded the ones I though were right.
In 1906, in an effort to improve the health of the country’s children, the British government passed a law that gave schools an allowance/permission (both are possible, I would guess «an allowance») to offer pupils nourishing cooked meals. The first schools to do so reported an amazing improvement in the children’s health, and soon most schools were offering cheap nutritional midday (I wouldn’t put commas between adjectives) meals to children whose parents could not afford to pay for them.
TV chef Jamie Olivier revealed the poor quality of the modern school dinner in his 2005 television series.
The public was made aware of the disturbing truth as the cameras filmed the scenes in school kitchens.
Viewers were shown overweight unhealthy children addicted to chips and junk food and who were unable to recognize many common vegetables.
Thankfully, Jamie’s campaign, together with pressure from parents and other groups, brought changes.
The government
were
forced to act, promptly banning meals high in salt and fat from school canteens.
It was also announced that it was:-D investing (should be a pound sign somewhwere) 280m in [STRIKE]the[/STRIKE] school[STRIKE]s[/STRIKE] dinners in an effort to replace cheap processed food with freshly cooked meals.
