Free School Meals

Children who attend a Bracknell Forest school and whose parents or carers receive certain benefits, may be entitled to free school meals.

Children eligible for free school meals will be provided with a meal at lunchtime which is paid for by the school.

If you are eligible to claim free school meals your application will trigger extra government funding for your child’s school.

This funding will be invested in your child at school. Some schools offer help with uniforms or discounted school trips for those children eligible for a free school meal. This will in turn save you more money on top of the price of your child’s meal.

You can ask your child’s school how they use this funding.
