Riley Pearson’s parents must face his headteacher before the four-day ban for not having a “healthy and balanced” packed lunch ends on Monday.

Mum Nicola Mardle, 24, said: “I would understand the exclusion if he was throwing tables around or bullying other children, but it is just ridiculous for a packet of Mini Cheddars.”

She said Riley usually takes a sandwich, Choobs fromage frais, Dairylea Dunkers and the offending cheese flavoured crackers.

Head Jeremy Meek said if the food policy at the school in Colnbrook, near Slough, Berks, is not adhered to it “potentially harms” the child.
