School Meals

The price of school meals is set in partnership with Portsmouth City Council and our caterer, Caterlink, at £2.96 per day. All meals must be paid for in advance or on the day via the SCOpay online payment system.

Free School Meals & Pupil Premium Funding

  • Reception, Year 1, and Year 2 (Key Stage 1): All children automatically receive free school meals under the government's Universal Infant Free School Meals (UIFSM) scheme.

  • Year 3 and Above: Free school meals are not automatic, and an application must be submitted.

Even if you are unsure whether you qualify, we strongly encourage you to apply. 

Late Arrivals

If your child will arrive at school late, please notify the school office of their lunch choice before 9:15 AM. If we do not receive their choice by this time, you will need to provide a packed lunch from home.

Dietary Requirements & Allergies

If your child has special dietary requirements or food allergies (e.g., dairy-free, soya-free), please complete the online Caterlink food allergy and intolerance form 

  • Caterlink will use this information to prepare a safe, tailored menu for your child.
