Free School Meals

Free Breakfast for Students

We are delighted to offer a FREE Breakfast provision in school for our pupils.

The breakfast, that is provided by the National School Breakfast Programme and our caterers Innovate, runs from 8:05am to 8:20am; it includes bagels and porridge. 

The National School Breakfast Programme is funded by the Department for Education and run by Family Action to support schools in England. They, together with our catering company Innovate, have the same goal to provide children with a healthy breakfast at the start of the school day.  They are committed to supporting child development, and believe a healthy school breakfast, without barrier or stigma, can set up children to succeed and give them the very best chance to learn.

In a normal school year, schools are open just over half the year (taking into account weekends and school holidays). This means even where breakfast is available within school, children are still having breakfast at home almost 50% of the time. Below you will find tips, ideas, information, recipes, videos and quizzes to make breakfast time an easy part of your morning routine at home.
