Every child in Reception, Year One and Year Two is offered a free school meal, known as a Universal Free School Meal. Our meals are provided and cooked at The King Alfred Secondary School in Highbridge by Aspens and then transported to us daily.  If your child is not entitled to receive Universal or Free School Meals, they can still purchase meals, to be ordered and paid for via Aspens Select.

To claim free school meals you must receive one of these benefits:

• Income support
• Employment and Support Allowance (Income related)
• Universal Credit with an annual household income of less than £7400 after tax
• Income-based Job Seekers Allowance (IBJSA)
• Guaranteed Element of State Pension Credit 
• Support under Part VI of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999
• Child Tax Credit provided you are not entitled to Working Tax Credit, with an annual taxable income (as assessed by HMRC) of less than £16,190

Please claim for Free School Meals even if your child is entitled to Universal Free School Meals, as the school is given extra funding in the form of a Pupil Premium Grant, which is used to provide additional support within the school.  

Universal Free School Meals

All children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 are entitled to Universal Free School Meals.

Packed Lunches 

If preferred, your child can bring a packed lunch. Please ensure they do not contain any nut-based ingredients as we have children with severe allergies. We also encourage packed lunches to be well-balanced and nutritious to help support your child's growth and development.
