The price increase will now be applicable from 26 October and the new price<br \/>\nof a 2 course primary school meal will be \u00a33.00 and the price of a secondary school 2 course<br \/>\nmeal will be \u00a33.05. A 3% annual inflationary rise will be incorporated thereafter.<\/p>\n<p>The new school meal price still represents value for money and cannot be compared to the<br \/>\nprevious subsided price. Both the Primary and the Secondary meal price includes a two course<br \/>\nlunch. In a primary school the choice is soup and main course plus water or milk or a main course<br \/>\nand sweet treat plus water or milk.
