Free School Meals Service
The Service Offer
We provide the complete solution for all aspects of the Free School Meals application process. Our service is unique in that only our systems integrate with real-time eligibility data giving a fast, accurate and efficient service, supported by our experienced staff who ensure it is as easy as possible for parents to apply. With each eligible student generating up to £1,320 worth of funding our service provides unrivalled value for money.
Benefits
- We save you time – you won’t need to manually check eligibility for free school meals and you won’t have to carry out on-going eligibility checks throughout the year.
- Our service means your academy will not miss out on valuable income and will empower all schools to maximise Pupil Premium payments.
- Promoting healthy eating at school is important to children’s learning and development. Ensuring those who have an entitlement to free school meals can easily apply and access the service is crucial in providing wide access to good food. We have made the process of applying for free school meals in Warwickshire simple – with an online form providing instant feedback to parents on eligibility.
The Effectiveness of our Service
