Information obtained by the South Wales Argus under the Freedom of Information Act has revealed the shocking state of school kitchens.
The paper obtained reports on dozens of primary and secondary school inspections showing 59 out of 139 inspected schools had seriously breached health regulations.
The documents also showed:
