School Meals

Hot lunches and filled baguettes are prepared by Innovate/IFG and served daily on-site.

Meals, including free school meals, must be ordered online in advance.

It is possible to order several weeks in advance.  

There is always a vegetarian option and the caterers will be happy to accommodate individual dietary requirements wherever possible. 

Meals are charged for in advance and paid for online.

IFG/Innovate who supply the lunches at school use an ordering system called School Grid - a modern and easy to use platform to make ordering school meals clearer, quicker, and more convenient.

This means we will need to share details of your child, and your name and email address, with School Grid. Please refer to their data privacy policy https://app.schoolgrid.co.uk/termsofuse/Privacy-Policy.pdf

  • Please contact the school office to set up an account.
  • You will then receive an invitation to create your login
  • Declare any allergens (N.B. the new system will not let you order any menu items that contain your child’s declared allergens).
  • Add funds to your account (unless you are entitled to FSM)
  • Place orders for meals for your child in advance (there is no guarantee that there will be any extra food available for any student whose parent/carer has not pre-ordered them a meal.)

Please contact the school office if you have any queries or need support to register your child for meals.

Free School Meal Eligibility

From September 2026 all children in households receiving Universal Credit will be eligible for free school meals, regardless of income. This means many more families will be able to access free school meals.

The application form for free school meals is simple and there is no need for you to supply any evidence to the school. On receipt of your application, school office staff contact the checking service, in confidence, and are simply told whether you are entitled or not entitled to receive free school meals for your son/daughter. None of your financial details or any benefits you receive are revealed to us.

Even if you receive Universal Credit, free school meals are not automatically given.  You must still apply through school.  If you think your child may be eligible, we strongly encourage you to apply.
