Table skills

[5 Little Monkeys]

I don't know if I have a set age I expect this from, but by 17 months she should be able to eat relatively tidy.

Are they accidents, deliberate or she just isn't physically able to eat well yet? How is she fed at home?

I would give her the meal or snack in two parts to cut back the mess from spilling/dumping. Try bowls/plates with suction/sticky things on them that make it hard to move them. If you don't have these kind of dishes, a foam mat as a placemat would work too.
