Dear Parent,

The key messages are that families in receipt and still eligible for Free School Meals do not need to do anything – the money will be automatically sent to your bank account from 25 March.

Any new family who think they meet the eligibility criteria will receive the additional payment if they apply before 1 April and if their application is accepted.

The full information is published on the free school meal page on the link below.

The annual Parental Involvement and Engagement (PIE) census has been launched to gather the views of Glasgow’s families to help shape and influence education policy and decision making.

The Scottish Government wants to improve and increase the ways in which parents, carers and families can work with teachers and partners to support their children and young people and to increase the voice of parents and carers in leading improvements within schools.

The census is open from Monday 28 February 2022 for four weeks and we will be promoting across our schools and nurseries to encourage as many of Glasgow’s parents and carers to take part and let us know your views.
