Free School Meals

Free school meals

Your child can get a free school meal if you receive any of the following:
Universal Credit
the guaranteed element of Pension Credit
support under Part VI of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999.

Pupils eligible under the no recourse to public funds criteria can also get a free school meal.
Schools receive additional funding and the pupil may be entitled to other benefits.
If you receive Universal Credit but your household income is more than £7,400, your child can get a free school meal only.
Apply today if you receive any of these benefits. It takes 5 mins and, in most cases, we can tell you straightaway if your child can get free meals at school.
