School Meals FAQs
What is included in a school meal?
Every day, you can be assured that a school meal will offer:
• At least two portions of fruit and vegetables
• Dairy food items rich in calcium for strong bones and teeth
• Starchy carbohydrates to provide energy
• A protein source to support the body’s growth and repair.
How do I order and pay for school meals?
All children in the UK in Reception, Year 1 or Year 2 are entitled to a delicious hot meal for FREE with the Universal Infant Free School Meal (UIFSM) Scheme.
From Year 3 (KS2), your child may still be eligible for Free School Meals (FSM), simply click this link for further information.
Meals can be ordered and paid for via the School Gateway Parent App. Even if your child is eligible for UIFSM or FSM, you must still order your child a daily meal.
What if my child has an allergy or special diet?
Our primary objective is to keep our pupils - your children – safe every day when enjoying their school meals. We take allergies very seriously and, supported by our robust Medical Diet Policy,
we’ve taken every step to ensure that as many children as possible living with food allergies and intolerance can eat safely at school with their friends.
If your child has a special diet requirement, you will be required to complete a Food Allergy and Intolerance Form which is available from the school office.
It is vital that this is accompanied by a medical supporting document to be able to create the special menu.
