Is unhealthy lunches served in schools the reason why kids are behaving poorly in class?

It's nice to posit a tentative link, but the answer at this point is probably no. No single factor could account for poor behavior and while poor nutrition probably does contribute to irritability and poor focus, it's not the only cause and lunches represent only a portion of this nutrition. Even a "bad" school lunch, high in salt, saturated fat and sugars still contains a reasonable number of calories from carbohydrates, fats and protein. A "bad" school lunch is still far better than outright junkfood or no meal at all. While such lunches probably are contributing to obesity and will have children gripping their chest in thirty years, the impact is not enough to cause bad behavior.

How does the religious separation in northern Ireland affect the schools?
Seperation of schools is caused by the intrangience of the Catholic Schools to amalgamate with the state schools. State Schools are open to all but usually attended by Protestants. A limited non denominational schools programme has started but is poorly supported by local politicians and religious leaders as it challenges their political support base. This separates children at 5 years of age into Catholic and Protestants and sets this format throughout their education and is probably one of the biggest factors causing "trouble" in Northern Ireland
