Recently, Haiyang Yingcai Experimental School in Yantai, Shandong Province was accused of storing pig feed and chicken feed in the canteen to cook porridge for students. On that day, hundreds of parents went to the school to discuss their views and reported them to the local government departments. On the 11th, an investigation team composed of the local government has settled in the school, and local food safety, public security and other departments are investigating the matter in the school.
Parents say the school gives their children "pig food"
A whole bag of pig feed was found in the canteen.
Parents also released a number of photos taken in the dining hall of Yingcai School, in which there were spoiled ingredients such as steamed bread with mildew and tomatoes covered with scars.
According to parents, in the autumn of 2015, some children frequently experienced symptoms such as nausea and vomiting. When the child’s condition was serious, parents were also called by the school life teacher to pick up the child. "But after going to the hospital for examination, I couldn’t find any problems. I only said that my stomach was not good." A parent told the Beijing Youth Daily reporter that during the 11 th holiday this year, his child said that he was not feeling well, so he took his child to the hospital for examination and found that his blood lead exceeded the standard. Later, I saw in the parents’ group that other parents said that there was something wrong with the canteen of Yingcai School.
The parent told the reporter of Beiqing Daily that he went to school at 4 o’clock in the afternoon on the 9 th and saw the whole package of pig feed and chicken feed piled up in the canteen. Listen to the children, even if you think steamed bread smells when you eat in the cafeteria, you must finish it, otherwise you will be deducted.
The photos provided by parents show that the pig feed in the school canteen is "pig compound feed" and the chicken feed packaging bag is "chicken compound feed in meat".
The school declared that the canteen was all right.
The supplier denied supplying the school.
After the incident, Haiyang Yingcai Experimental School issued a statement saying that the so-called "spoiled eggs" were left over from the tea eggs served in the restaurant for breakfast on October 9, so the color was darker; Moldy tomatoes are because some tomatoes do have individual bad conditions in the process of mass purchase; The meat in the school dining room is supplied by Lin Tao Meat Company, with inspection and quarantine certificate. According to the statement, there is no case of cooking spoiled or unclean ingredients.
This school statement is not only recognized by parents, but also by the supply company mentioned in it. Lin Tao Meat Company mentioned in the school statement made a public statement on October 10th, saying that they were not food suppliers of the school at all, and "never provided pork and quarantine certificates to the school".
Lin Tao Company said that enterprises that provide meat to schools must be approved by the Education Bureau, and Lin Tao Company "failed to bid". They think that there is a problem with school meals now, and it is "looking for scapegoats" to declare that their enterprises are suppliers.
The reporter of Beiqing Daily learned that Yingcai Experimental School is a modern full-time private school with the approval of Haiyang Municipal Education and Sports Bureau, which integrates children, primary schools and junior high schools.
The father of a third-grade student of the school told the reporter of Beiqing Daily that the annual tuition fee of Yingcai Experimental School is 8,600 yuan, which is considered as a higher-priced school in the local area. After the children live in school, they can’t go home until noon every Saturday, and they have to go back to school by car on Sunday night. Three meals a day are solved in the school cafeteria.
Haiyang municipal government promises strict supervision.
The investigation team entered the school yesterday.
On the afternoon of October 10th, Haiyang Municipal Government issued an open letter to the parents of some students in Yingcai Experimental School about the chaotic management of school canteens and the unqualified quality of ingredients.
According to the open letter, on October 9, some parents of Haiyang Yingcai Experimental School went to the municipal government to report the chaotic management of the school canteen and the unqualified quality of the ingredients. The municipal government has set up a special working group, and instructed the Education and Sports Bureau, the Market Supervision Bureau and other departments to immediately sample and test the ingredients in the school canteen, check and implement the qualifications of the school canteen and the procedures for purchasing ingredients, and instruct the Yingcai Experimental School to cooperate with the investigation. The market supervision bureau sampled 22 varieties of ingredients in the school cafeteria for the first time, and entrusted Qingdao Inger Testing Technology Service Co., Ltd. for testing, and the results will be fed back in a week.
In this open letter, the Haiyang municipal government also promised that if any students report physical discomfort in the near future, the municipal government will instruct the school to organize physical examination for the students. Before the test results are issued, the municipal government will arrange a working group to strictly supervise the school canteen to ensure the safety of school teachers and students during the period.
On the afternoon of the 11th, the reporter of Beiqing Daily called the guidance office of Yingcai School. The staff who answered the phone told the reporter of Beiqing Daily that he was a staff member sent by the Education Bureau to the investigation team of Yingcai School. At present, the investigation team has officially settled in Yingcai School.
According to this staff member, ordinary school teachers also eat in the canteen. After parents reported that there was a problem in the school canteen, the staff responsible for catering in the relevant positions have been arranged to be replaced, which will not affect the students’ dining these days. According to the staff member, the student canteen of Yingcai School was managed by the sister of the principal of the school.
