On October 15th, Tuoi Tre newspaper recorded various opinions from parents and schools regarding opening school cafeterias to monitor the quality of students' meals.
While parents want unannounced inspections and direct supervision from food sourcing to meal portioning, schools are concerned that subjective, trend-driven supervision could create pressure and negatively impact the relationship between families and the school.
