  • Any pupils that have been eligible for free school meals in the last six years
  • Those eligible for free school meals (FSM)

  • Support under Part 6 of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999

Registering your child for FSM means that our school will get an extra £1320 to fund valuable support like additional teaching staff or after school activities. We recognise that the single biggest contribution to the progress of the disadvantaged pupils is the quality of teaching they receive on a day to day basis. So even if your child does not want to eat the school dinners please register to enable our schools to get the extra funding.
