Free School Meals

From Friday 3rd April, Paypoint vouchers will be sent directly to parents/carer via their mobile phone for those families entitled to free school meals. Entitlement will be from the assessment used to provide free schools meals, which is benefits based. This means that universal provision of free school meals for primaries 1 to 3 will cease. This overall scheme will benefit approximately 8,800 children per week and targets those in greatest need.

Therefore the last day of the ‘Take and Go’ lunch bags will cease after Friday 3rd April.
Only children attending the Hubs for emergency childcare purposes will still receive a meal.
