Have your circumstances changed over the last year? If so, your child may be entitled to Free School Meals, see the qualifying criteria below.
Even if your child is in Class 1 or 2 and entitled to Universal Infant Free School Meals, applying now means they can continue to receive a free meal in Key Stage 2. Schools are also provided with additional funding called Pupil Premium to support or enhance the learning of those pupils who receive free meals.
Claiming doesn’t mean that your child has to take a school meal every day, they can still bring a packed lunch if they wish.
You can apply quickly on-line at www.shropshire.gov.uk/free-school-meals/apply-for-free-school-meals or completing the application form below and e-mailing to fsm@shropshire.gov.uk.
