Document information regarding special dietary requirements and share this with all those in contact with the child
Just say what your policy and proceedures would be if such a situation arose eg if you had a new starter who had special dietary requirements such as:
vegetarian
vegan
diabetic
nut allergies
wheat allergies
dairy allegies
gluten allergies ..............etc
Non pork diet (Islam)
halal meat only (Islam)
Kosher - no pork or shellfish (Judiasm)
Hope this helps x
