Free School Meals

If you are in receipt of any of the benefits given below, you are entitled to receive free school meals for your daughter(s). Please do take up this opportunity by asking for a ‘Free School Meals’ application from Reception or download one from the link below and return it as soon as possible. Free Meals will not commence until eligibilty is confirmed via the electronic checking system or other evidence if needed.

If you do qualify for this entitlement but do not want your child to receive free school meals, we would still encourage you to apply as the school would receive an additional £430 per student into it's school budget which could benefit your child. 

 

Applications  must be made HERE and eligibility confirmed before school meals can commence. Unfortunately the school is not in a financial position to be able to give free meals to students who are not entitled and we are unable to loan money.
