How do I apply for school meals?

How do I apply?

Inform your school that your child would like School Meals. If you think you may be entitled to Free School Meals ask your School for the necesssary form to complete.

What is the cost of a School Meal?

Great value for a 2 course meal at only £7.00 per week.

Why Choose a School Meal?

  • School meals offer a selection of freshly cooked main meals and desserts every day, often including pasta, salad, fresh fruit and yoghurt.
  • All meals are nutritionally balanced over the course of one week and are served by friendly and cheerful catering staff.
  • Children can sit down toghether and enjoy their meal whilst at the same time developing social skills of eating together that are so important in later life.
  • A well fed and happy child is more likely to be receptive to participating in the afternoon's activities.
  • Convenience. Someone else preparing and cooking lunch for your child saves you worrying avout a packed meal every day.
How do I change from packed meals to school meals?
Tell your child's school that you want to change to School Meals and from when.
