In a recent move focused on creating a nutritious food environment around schools and educating students on healthy eating habits, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has directed all affiliated schools to establish ‘sugar boards’ on their campuses. These boards will monitor students’ sugar intake and raise awareness about the health risks associated with excessive sugar consumption.
The programme was organised following the directions of the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE). The CBSE also directed the schools to establish ‘sugar boards’ on the school campuses to monitor students’ sugar intake and raise awareness about the health risks associated with excessive sugar consumption.
This move follows recommendations from the National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR), amid growing concerns over the rising incidence of Type 2 diabetes, obesity and dental issues among children.
