Free School Meals

Free School meals

Your child may be able to get free school meals if you get any of the following:

• Income Support
• income-based Jobseeker’s Allowance
• income-related Employment and Support Allowance
• support under Part VI of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999
• the guaranteed element of Pension Credit
• Child Tax Credit (provided you’re not also entitled to Working Tax Credit and have an annual gross income of no more than £16,190)
• Working Tax Credit run-on – paid for 4 weeks after you stop qualifying for Working Tax Credit
• Universal Credit 

A nutritious meal will help to improve children’s educational attainment, develop long‐term healthy eating habits and will also help families with the cost of living. If you believe that you are entitled to Free School Meals, please contact the school office for an application form.
