Food insecurity (FI) is still endemic in most parts of Low and Middle Income Countries (LMICs), including Ghana. This study was a quasi-experimental design carried out in the Wa Municipality. We assessed the proximate and minerals in African locust fruit pulp (Parkia biglobosa) and biscuits made from composite flours. We also did sensory evaluation on the formulated biscuits. We also assessed the acceptability of biscuits manufactured. We performed proximate analysis and used two treatments: control sample, wheat flour (WF) and ALFPF at 100, 75, 25, and 0%. A total of 100 respondents randomly selected, sensory evaluate the products based on appearance, texture, scent, taste, and acceptability, based on a nine-point hedonic scale questionnaire. Generally, the mineral and nutrient quantities were higher in the composite biscuit compared to the control except for fat and oil. Protein, fibre, carbohydrate content was statistically significantly (p < 0.001) higher for the sample with 25% flour and 75% ALFPF compared to the control and 50/50 and 75/25. Probably, this consumption can improve food insecurity and the consumption of this can improve food insecurity, hidden hunger levels among the population. Key words: Parkia biglobosa, African locust bean, proximate, minerals, Wa municipality, Ghana.

School going children face a complicated period of growth and development, remarkably affecting their health and productivity. School feeding programmes were assessed using three levels of assessment based on guidelines of school feeding and nutrition: (i) Conducting 11 key informant interviews, (ii) Conducting 45 focus group discussions and (iii) Using 24 h recall and food frequency questionnaires to evaluate the dietary and nutrient quality of school meals among 225 school going children. Two forms of feeding programmes: Parent led and home grown, were implemented concurrently. About 90% of the learners ate food items from 2 to 4 food groups. Children in all categories of schools had sub optimal daily nutrients (energy, proteins, vitamin A and iron) from school meals. Nationally, school children were only accessing 28% of their energy needs, 64% proteins requirements and 42% of iron requirements. School meals provide about 40-≥ 100% vitamin A requirements, 40-62% of iron requirements and about 30% daily energy requirements. In order to improve school feeding, there is need to enhance coordination and stakeholder engagement, strengthen local and community engagement, improve the nutrient content of school meals and engage stakeholders to change their attitudes and practices toward healthy eating. Key words: Education, dietary quality, school feeding, agriculture.
