Free School Meals Eligibility Update – Check if you are eligible
The Department for Education has recently updated the eligibility criteria for Free School Meals. This means some families may now qualify, even if they have not been eligible in the past.
If you receive Universal Credit, you should apply. We strongly encourage all families to check their eligibility and submit an application.
To apply, you will need:
- Your name
- Your National Insurance number
- Your date of birth
