Children can choose their meal each day, but the school office needs to be informed about a regular change from or to school dinners / packed lunch please. The Government announced that from September 2014 your child will be eligible for a free school meal if they are in Foundation stage, Year 1 or Year 2. This means all children in F2 Foxes, F2 Hedgehogs, Year 1 Penguins, Year 1 Polar Bears, Year 2 Sharks and Year 2 Starfish will be able to have a free hot meal at school each day.
Pupil Premium is additional funding given to publicly funded schools in England to raise the attainment of disadvantaged pupils and close the gap between them and their peers. It is currently paid to schools according to the number of pupils who have been:
-
registered as eligible for free school meals at any point in the last 6 years
-
been in care for 6 months or longer
We will therefore ask parents on a regular basis to let us know if they think that they are eligible for Free School Meals/ Pupil Premium funding.
