Separately to Southwark's free school meal offer, those parents/carers whose children would qualify for Free School Meals under the Government’s existing offer should also continue to apply for Free School Meals as before. To do so you will need to be in receipt of one of the below benefits:

• Income Support
• Income Based Jobseeker’s Allowance
• Income Based Employment and Support Allowance
• Guarantee element of State Pension Credit
• Support under part IV of the Immigration & Asylum Act 1999
• Child Tax Credit with no working tax credit and have an income not exceeding £16,190
• Working Tax Credit Run on – paid for 4 weeks after you stop qualifying for Working Tax Credit
• Universal Credit – with net earned income of no more than £7,400

‍

Your child will receive a free dinner throughout the school year regardless, however if you are eligible to apply for Free School Meals under the Government’s existing offer, there are other additional benefits to the school worth £1,300 per year. That’s extra money to spend on enrichment activities, teacher development, and targeted support for the children that need it most. We also operate food vouchers during the holiday for Free School Meal recipients.

If you think the above applies to you, please complete an application to ensure that the school, and the children continue to receive additional funding by clicking here.

If your child has a food allergy or intolerance, you must inform the school office. Your child's dietary requirements will be recorded and this information passed onto the Kitchen as well as their class teacher.

Children may bring a packed lunch to school. This must be on a daily and not an ad hoc basis, and the school office must be informed in advance.

We are a nut free school and packed lunches must not contain any nuts, sesame, sweets or fizzy drinks. Lunches should be in a suitable, named container. In the interest of safety we do not allow cans, glass bottles or 'glass type' vacuum flasks.
