You will be required to upload medical evidence of the allergy/intolerance.
Free School Lunches
- Universal Free Meals - the government provide funding to schools for all children in Years R, 1 and 2 to have a school dinner free of charge
- Free School Meals - for those families on low income, you may be entitled to free school meals if you meet the eligibility criteria. You can sign up to this even if your child has the Universal Free Meals because you may get other benefits such as vouchers during holiday periods. If you think you may be entitled call the school office
Alternatively, you can check yourself by clicking on the link below:
Application for Free School Meals
Please note that the criteria for free school meals is the same, regardless of method of checking eligibility.
For the online service all you need to do is enter your;
- name
- national insurance number or asylum number
- your address
- your child’s details.
Press ‘submit’ and you will find out if you are eligible.
If your result comes back ‘found’ this means your child is eligible for free school meals and the system automatically informs us.
Should you require any further assistance please pop in to the school office.
The school receives extra funding for every child that is entitled to a free school meal. When teachers call dinner register no one knows who is free and who pays - there should be no shame in claiming your entitlement and, remember, you are not just helping your child to a delicious and nutritious school lunch but you are helping the school too!
Even if you don't actually have the school meals (you can still bring packed lunch) the school gains the funding because you are entitled. To find out more about this funding and how the school uses it, see our Pupil Premium page.
