> In a secondary school you have around about a 25-minute period to serve potentially 1,000 pupils. Have they tried giving kids a humane amount of time to eat

  Unless lunch hours are different in Scottish schools, they're talking about the 25 minutes the canteen staff are serving the kids. There's another 35 minutes to eat the food.

  In my secondary school of around ~1000 people they solved this by simply assigning a rotating time in the lunch break at which year groups could get the food (i.e a 10 min slot at 12:45 one day, 1300 the next, etc - you could sit and eat as long as you liked). I'm surprised this is not a solved problem...

    It is a solved problem. The entire world has solved this problem. This is not a reason, this is a pretext.

  Of the top of my head we had 15 or 20 minutes. Perfectly adequate time to eat the content of your brown bag.
