Around 4,000 students' families from public schools in Bizkaia protested in Bilbao against deficiencies and irregularities in the school meal service. The service is managed by companies contracted by the Education Department of the Basque Government for the next three academic years.

The protest took place in front of the Basque Government's Education Delegation office.
