Lunchtime

Hot meals are available to order from www.parentpay.com

All hot meals need to be ordered via ParentPay both for those who are entitled to Free School Meals and those who pay for their meals.

Those children not having a school meal should bring in a packed lunch. These should be nutritionally healthy with a balance of protein, fruit and fibre. Insulated flasks are allowed to keep food warm but not those with a glass vacuum lining. There should be no sweets, nuts or chocolate bars and no fizzy drinks (no glass bottles or cans please). We also recommend that children shouldn’t be eating crisps everyday as these have high levels of salt.

Due to food allergies with nuts please ensure that your child does not have any nut products in school, so no spreads, or healthy biscuits with nuts in them.

Free School Meals

If you are on a low income you may be eligible to claim for free school meals if you are in receipt of:

    • Child Tax Credit (with no Working Tax Credit) with an annual income of no more than £16,190
    • Income Support
    • Income-based Jobseekers Allowance
    • Income-related Employment and Support Allowance
    • Support under Part 6 of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999
    • The guarantee element of Pension Credit
    • Child Tax Credit (please request an application form if you think you are eligible)
    • Working Tax Credit run-on - paid for the 4 weeks after you stop qualifying for Working Tax Credit
    • Universal Credit with an annual net earned income of no more than £7,400

Application forms are available from the school office or apply on line via the West Sussex County Council website https://www.westsussex.gov.uk/education-children-and-families/schools-and-colleges/free-school-meals/free-school-meals-online-application/

Even if your child does not want to eat a hot school meal it is worth you applying if you can as the school is awarded additional money for your child’s education that will be spent directly on their learning if they qualify for FSM.
