Universal Free School Meals
From September 2014, all Infant school-aged pupils are entitled to free school meals, regardless of the parent/carer's circumstances.
You may have heard this scheme referred to as 'Universal Infant Free School Meals'. If your child is in Reception, Year 1 or Year 2 you do not need to submit an application in order for your child to start getting free school meals.
If you think you might be eligible under the standard criteria (see page titled 'eligibility for Free School Meals) we would ask that you make an application because we are given additional funding from the Government (called Pupil Premium) for every child who successfully registers.
