Lunch Menus & FSM
School meals are free for ALL pupils in Foundation, Year 1 and Year 2 under the government Universal Infant FREE School Meals initiative.
All our meals are freshly cooked every day on site, using locally sourced produce. Our school kitchen has been awarded a 5 star hygiene rating. Alternatively, pupils may bring a packed lunch for home.
If Keystage 2 pupils would like a school meal, these are currently priced at £3.40. Please see the menus below for what is on offer. If you have any questions, please speak to the School Office.
Universal infant school meals (UIFSM) provides funding for all government funded schools to offer free school meals to pupils in reception, year 1 and year 2. The UIFSM is different funding from that of benefits-related free school meals. However, it is important that parents who receive one of the qualifying benefits listed above register for benefits related free school meals as this enables the child’s school to claim pupil premium.
Is my child eligible for free school meals?
From the start of the 2026-2027 academic year, free school meals eligibility is being expanded to all children from households in receipt of Universal Credit, regardless of household earnings. Free school meals are available to pupils in receipt of, or whose parents are in receipt of, one or more of the qualifying benefits below:
- Universal Credit
- Support under Part VI of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999
Households may also be entitled to a meal if they:
- are in receipt of income-related Employment and Support Allowance
- receive the guarantee element of Pension Credit
- meet criteria set out in separate guidance for families with no recourse to public funds
There will be two qualifying groups for free school meals:
- Targeted free school meals - households in receipt of Universal Credit with annual earnings of £7,400 or less.
- Expanded free school meals - pupils who do not qualify for targeted free school meals, but are in households receiving Universal Credit.
If you are awarded free school meals this will continue to the end of the 2026-2027 academic year, even if you have a change in your circumstances that means you should not qualify for free school meals. All claims will be reviewed ahead of the 2027-2028 academic year.
