*If you think that your child may be entitled to free school meals please ask for information from the school office. 

Universal Free School Meals are offered to children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2. If your child is in any of these classes the school automatically orders the meals on their behalf. Parents do need to access the menu choices to decide what should be ordered for their child .

Please note that even if your child receives a Universal Free School Meal, if they are entitled to a standard free school meal they will be eligible for Pupil Premium funding. You can find further details on our Pupil Premium page.

If you have any questions or concerns please contact the school office.
