Free school meals

All children in Key Stage 1 and FS2 are entitled to Universal free school meals.

 

If you or your partner have claimed benefits ( even historically)  your child may be entitled to free dinners in Key Stage 2.  Schools also benefit from this by receiving additional funds.

It will only take a few minutes and our admin staff will gladly help.

Free school meals

Free school meals can be awarded if you receive any of the following:

  • Income Support
  • Job Seeker's Allowance (income-based)
  • Employment and Support Allowance (income-related)
  • support under part six of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999
  • the Guarantee element of State Pension Credit
  • Child Tax Credit - providing you are NOT entitled to Working Tax Credit and your family's annual income (as assessed by HMRC) is not more than £16,190 (as at 6 April 2012)
  • Working Tax Credit 'run-on' - the payment you may receive for a further four weeks after you stop qualifying for Working Tax Credit
  • Universal Credit (provided you have an annual net earned income of no more than £7,400, as assessed by earnings from up to three of your most recent assessment periods)

Most applications for free school meals are processed by Wiltshire Council, but a number of schools administer their own applications and will advise you of their process.
