In London, every primary age child will receive free school meals over the 2024/2025 academic year, and the program will be administered automatically by schools, meaning parents won't need to take any action to benefit from it. This scheme is part of an emergency support measure to help families cope with the rising cost of living.
Even if your child does not wish to eat free school meals, but is entitled to them, it's worth applying for them because for each child entitled to free school meals the Academy could receive funding to help with tuition, resources, coaching and extra assistance. Find out if your child is entitled to free school meals by accessing this link.
Here is a link to the Eatwell Guide (from Public Health England) – this provides a useful overview of what food groups make up a balanced and healthy diet.
If your child has a special diet and/or certain food intolerances, then we have a special diet procedure which contains a form for the parent/carer to complete and return – link here.
