School Meals – 8th – 19th March

Nursery and P1-3

Where pupils are required to attend school, school meals services will operate as normal, therefore Nursery and P1-3 can avail of free school meals during this period – either free school meals (if entitled) or by purchasing them

Direct payments in lieu of free school meals will not be made in respect of pupils in year groups that are required to attend school as these pupils will receive free school meals at school for the period they are required to attend. 

Key workers’ children and vulnerable children P4-7

Free school meals will not be provided to key workers’ children and vulnerable children entitled to free school meals when at school for supervised learning as their parents will receive a direct payment. However, any pupil at school who wishes, including vulnerable children and children of key workers, may purchase a meal where school meals services are operating as normal for the period pupils are required to attend, otherwise they should bring a packed lunch.

Please note that key workers’ children and vulnerable children attending school in this period should wear their school uniform.
