Free School Meals

Why apply?

If you apply and qualify for Free School Meals we will receive additional funding called Pupil Premium.

We can spend the Pupil Premium money on anything that can  help your child do well at school, including trips, activities and extra support. You can see a breakdown of our spending here.

Applying online only takes a few minutes and, if eligible, your child will continue to receive Free School Meals until the end of Year 11. This is even if your income rises above the threshold at any point during that time.
