Free School meals
Did you know that Hertfordshire County Council could save you £300 every year?
If you receive one of the benefits shown below, you could be eligible for free school meals worth over £300 per child per year.
The meals provided are exactly the same as others served in the school and parents can choose the packed lunch option for their child, if they prefer.
The school receives extra funding for pupils receiving free school meals and can use this funding to support the pupils in a variety of ways.
If you would like to discuss this further in confidence, please contact the office for an appointment with Mrs Ellwood.
Do you receive any of these?
- Income Support
- Income-based Jobseeker’s Allowance
- Income-related Employment and Support Allowance
- Support under Part VI of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999
- The Guarantee element of State Pension Credit
- Child Tax Credit, provided they are not entitled to Working Tax Credit and have an annual income of £16,190 or less, as assessed by Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs
Where a parent is entitled to Working Tax Credit during the four-week period immediately after their employment ceases, or after they start to work less than 16 hours per week, their children are entitled to free school lunches. Children who receive a qualifying benefit in their own right are also eligible to receive Free School Meals.
