Thanks Gilla. "Improving" would go well too. My mother was a school cook, so we used to hear a lot about the nutritional content of school meals at home!

Peer comment(s):

agree Charles Davis : I'd suggest "Raising Nutritional Standards": more natural than the literal "strengthening" (eg. http://www.easytrace.co.uk/solution/cashless_catering/raisin... ). This is definitely the right approach; the gerund is ideal in a title.
