BIZARRE: Nearly four in 10 teachers say children come to school hungry - What They Never Told You

A new survey has found almost four in 10 teachers say children have come to school hungry. The survey, of 750 teachers, found 37% have children in their class who had not had breakfast in the morning.

Around 63% say this has increased over the last year. Additionally, 29% of teachers say they have given their own food to a child, while a majority have also seen an increase in youngsters attending breakfast clubs.

The research from Kellogs also polled 1,228 parents. It found 18% of those have children who do not always eat breakfast, with 19% saying that was down to a morning rush.
