  • Income-based Job Seekers Allowance (IBJSA), or
  • Income -related Employment and Support Allowance (ESA), or
  • National Asylum Seeker Support under part VI of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999, or
  • Child Tax Credits, with a gross family income that DOES NOT exceed £16,190 (Please note that if you receive Working Tax Credit you will not be entitled to free school meals), or

How to Apply for Free School Meals

Did you know?...

If your child is entitled to Free School Meals, the school will receive £1,320 Pupil Premium money to spend on him/her.

 

What if I qualify but don't want my child to have school dinners? This is completely fine, they can bring a packed lunch but we still urge you to register your child so that they receive the £1,320.

 

How will we spend the £1,320 on your child?

  • We will subsidise the full cost of school visits (excluding Drayton Manor Park).
  • Your child will receive a Free School Meal (saving you more than £350 a year).
  • Provide a range of educational games and reading books to borrow and take home.
  • We will provide extra support in class.

 

The money is designed to support your child's achievement in all aspects of school life.
