RESUMO
This study seeks to emphasize school food as an important policy to promote student autonomy by means of food and nutrition education included in the curriculum, integrated with different actors and based on the standpoint of citizenship. It seeks to return to fundamental concepts in the context of school food reflecting on them through theoretical assumptions to identify possible strategies to promote citizenship and autonomy in school. The strategies involved food and nutrition education with the daily presence of quality and suitability in school meals, discussions on the various dimensions of food in the curriculum and integrating food in the pedagogical project extended to various areas of the education system. School food fosters the need for integration of actions, actors and the various social spaces interested in the food issue, such as ministries, education systems, departments and schools, so that they may tackle the demands of contemporary reality in an integrated, systematic, consistent and efficient manner.

Este estudo tem por objetivo evidenciar a alimentação na escola como importante política na promoção da autonomia dos estudantes por meio de uma educação alimentar e nutricional desenvolvida de modo curricular, integrado pelos diferentes atores e sob a ótica da cidadania. Retomar conceitos fundamentais no contexto da alimentação escolar, refletindo sobre eles por meio de pressuposições teóricas para identificar possíveis estratégias na promoção de cidadania e da autonomia na escola. As estratégias envolveram educação alimentar e nutricional com a presença cotidiana de qualidade e adequação na alimentação escolar, de debates sobre as diversas dimensões da alimentação no currículo vivido e com integração da alimentação no projeto pedagógico estendido a vários âmbitos do sistema de ensino. A alimentação na escola suscita que haja integração das ações, dos atores e dos diversos espaços sociais interessados pelo tema alimentação, como ministérios, sistemas de ensino, secretarias e escolas, de modo que se possa enfrentar, de modo integrado, sistemático, consistente e eficiente, as demandas da realidade contemporânea.
