School feeding has been an effective safety net that has prevented countries affected by economic challenges from adopting negative coping strategies. The study assessed the food quality of the Ghanaian School Feeding Programme in Bawku Municipality, in the Upper East Region. Some of the specific objectives were; to assess the wholesomeness of the foodstuffs used in the preparation of meals for the school pupils and also examining the impacts of the school feeding programme on the basic education in the Bawku Municipality. The study highlighted some of the challenges confronting caterers who are involved in the school feeding programme. A survey research design was employed to obtain the data from primary and secondary sources. The primary data was obtained through a structured questionnaire administered to 120 respondents in 10 randomly selected public primary six pupils and two caterers each from the selected schools in Bawku Municipality. The retrieved data was analysed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 20.0 and the results were presented in the form of tables and figures. The results showed that (70%) of the basic schools under the school feeding programme in Bawku Municipality enjoy quality food and this has led to an increased in pupils’ enrolment, and class attendance. The major challenges were found to be the delay in releasing of funds to caterers. It was recommended that, the government of Ghana should provide the Municipal Assembly with resources to help monitor and evaluate the implementation of the program for improvement. Moreover, the municipal assembly should find a better storage facility for the schools under the GSFP to help keep the food safe for a longer period without introducing chemicals that has a longer effect on the food and harmful to pupils.
