Many kids leave school to go to local shops for lunch.
I remember being allowed to do that, but the nearest place to eat was far enough away that even if you had a car you couldn't make it there and back in time without rushing which kinda killed the vibe.
Ahh I can't say I know that many schools that don't have local shops within 5minute walk even if it is just a small spar or something, often with a fish n chip shop or something next door not that they were ever open during lunch, for whatever reason every single fish n chip shop in the country seems to be closed until mid afternoon except in the beach towns.
Can confirm here in the UK we have zero security whatsoever. Kids come and go as they please. Many kids leave school to go to local shops for lunch.
