| North Yorkshire School Meals
Last year, we decided to look at the menus that are provided by the County Catering service to make sure that we are providing food that children enjoy and will eat. The School Council carried out a survey of preferences for children in all year groups, and met with one of our governors to talk about how the menu could be improved. The result of this is the production of a brand-new two-week rolling menu which is based on the children’s top choices of meals while remaining nutritionally balanced across the week. We review this half termly, and will be inviting input from children and parents. Free School MealsFree school meals are available to children whose parents are in receipt of one or more of the following benefits:
Where parents are entitled to working tax credit during a four week "run on" period immediately after their employment has ceased, or after they have started to work less than 16 hours per week, their children are entitled to free school meals. Children who receive income support or income based jobseeker's allowance in their own right are also entitled to free school meals. Should you meet the above criteria, you can apply by using the application form in the useful downloads section. Applications are usually processed the same day. If your child is entitled to free school meals you will receive a letter confirming the date when the meals will start. The school is also notified that your child is entitled to free school meals. In the meantime, you should continue to pay for free school meals until confirmation comes through. Schools may be able to arrange a reimbursement of any monies paid whilst your entitlement is being confirmed. If you are not entitled to free school meals you will be notified in writing.
