We are happy to accept payment in advance for the week, month, half term or term. This can be paid via the My child at School app or by BACS transfer please contact the finance department for bank details on 01204 328994 option 3.

Free School Meals

Free school meals are available to some children according to family income. It’s important to register for entitlement to free school meals, even if your child has a packed lunch – this is so we can receive additional funding (called Pupil Premium) which we can use to help your child.

 

Children are entitled to Free School Meals if their parents, carers or guardians receive any of the following:

  • Income Support
  • Universal Credit
  • Income Based Job Seekers Allowance
  • Income Related Employment Support Allowance
  • Pension Credit  – Guarantee Credit
  • Child Tax Credit only with an annual income of less than £16,190
  • Support under Part VI of the Immigration & Asylum Act 1999
 

By receiving free school meals you can save up to £400 a year and ensure your child is eating a healthy, balanced meal every day.

To find out if your child qualifies for free school meals, and for any help or advice, please contact:

Packed Lunches

Alternatively, children may bring a packed lunch. This should be in a secure named container. A drink should be provided in a non breakable container. Packed lunches are eaten in the main hall. We ask Parents not include anything containing nuts or may contain nuts, as we're a nut-free school, sweets, chocolate or fizzy drinks – instead, we encourage lots of fruit, vegetables and water.
