The Quality of School Meals at the Elementary School and the Nursery School and in the School Canteen in the Children´s Home in Budkov
VEVERKOVÁ, Dagmar
Eating outside the home is of great social significance, and its importance is increasing not only in the developed countries, but also in the Czech Republic, where most people have at least one daily meal outside their homes. This is the reason my bachelor?s thesis is dedicated to the quality of catering in two organizations. One of them is Dětský domov Budkov (Children?s Home in Budkov), and the other is Základní škola Budkov (Primary School in Budkov). The theoretical part of my bachelor?s thesis deals with general knowledge of HACCP and the consumer basket. This also includes the diversity of menus and the composition of daily menus. I concentrated on the consumption of salt in both institutions. I also remembered to observe the quality and form of catering, its organization and the spatial layout. In my practical, part I compare the two children canteens in Budkov. In chapter ?Results? I describe individual parts of the catering properties a complex of storage spaces, the canteen, and the kitchen itself. I especially concentrated on the inspection and observance of the critical points of HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points), I went through the diagrams of manufacturing processes, and the cooks lent me the protocols with the measured temperatures of the critical points. When filling the food basket, considerable attention was paid to the percentage observance of the ten basic ingredients. I asked the caterers if they could measure the daily consumption of salt, and the values consequently helped me to obtain the final result. The pupils of the primary school and the inhabitants of the children?s home in Budkov provided me with subjective evaluation of the prepared meals. I could also take some picture materials. The aim of this thesis is to compare the preparation of meals for children in both canteens and evaluate the results.

Therefore, the research part of my thesis is focused on the survey of the quality of food served to children and adolescents who are almost entirely dependent on meals prepared in canteens of children´s diagnostic institutions and institutional care and preventive educational care facilities. The aim of this thesis was to find out whether the variety of dishes served in the selected facilities corresponds to current nutrition recommendations and if the consumer basket meets requirements of the Decree No 107/2005 Coll., as amended by Decree No. 107/2008 Coll. The research was conducted by the qualitative method. To collect data on the investigated facilities the technique of data file analysis was used. The research set was composed of children´s diagnostic institutions, children´s homes, children´s homes with school, educational institutions and the Center of Educational Care in the Hradec Králové region. At random six facilities were selected. They provided me with data such as menues, issue slips and consumer baskets in the months of March, April, October and November in 2008 The obtained data were summarized in tables and graphs which provide information on the composition of meals served, on the consumer baskets composition, on ways to cover the total consumption of fruits and vegetables, the ratio in which plant and animal fats are served, the amount of sausages, smoked products and haslet in the group of meat. The management of selected food facilities will be informed about the outcomes and possible shortcomings.
