David Weller, AiP's managing director, said: "Harlington has a partnership ethos and is part of the Healthy Schools Programme so it is a tremendous opportunity to be working alongside such a health conscious and progressive school."

Moira Boyle, Harlington's Business Manager, added: "We are delighted to appoint AiP as our chosen caterer; the students are really looking forward to trying the new menus and the variety of food and drinks on offer."

The school has a biometric cashless system installed for easy meal ordering, serving and reporting which AiP will integrate into its service.
