BCP Council notifies us of eligibility.
Our system updates overnight; status shows the next school day.
Sending us your confirmation letter helps us provide meals without delay.

If you have any questions, we’re happy to help—thank you for your support.

If eligibility is confirmed, how does my child claim their free school meal?

Anyone in receipt of a free school meal should go to canteen, select their meal and proceed to the tills. The fact that they are in receipt of free school meals will be noted on the till operator’s screen. A free school meal can be used for a “Lunch Offer”, or at morning break for a “Brunch Offer”.

What is included in the daily allowance?

We are keen that students who are entitled to a free school meal have a balanced, healthy meal. Therefore, there are only certain items that are eligible to be purchased using the free school meal credit that the child receives. In short, the “Lunch Offer” is a hot meal of the day (a vegetarian alternative is available) or a freshly prepared sandwich, with a potted dessert or fruit or yoghurt.

“Brunch Offer” is a hot snack with fruit or yoghurt. Water is available in the canteen for students to fill their water bottles.

Can my child buy products that are not included?

Yes, the lunch or brunch offer will be covered by the free school meal credit, but if they want to buy something that is not covered (or want to have something at both break and lunch) then they can purchase this from any monies they have on their lunch card/ID card that you have provided.

Can my child have something at break and something at lunch on the free school meal credit?

No, the credit for the day can be used at either break time or lunchtime. In order to have both, the student will need to use additional funds of their own, on the card.

What happens if my child does not use the credit they receive on any one day?

The free school meal daily credit received can only be used on that day.

Can my child go into overdraft?

No, if there are no funds on a student's card then they will not be able to purchase anything at the canteen. You can top up your child’s account/card at anytime to ensure they have money for snacks, drinks etc. from the canteen.
