Free School Meals
The Coronavirus pandemic has brought about huge change for everyone, both globally and locally within our own communities. The impact of this is felt across all walks of life, and all social and economic backgrounds. As a result, for some families this may bring about a period of unexpected economic strain.
For those families not currently claiming Free School Meals:-
In order to support those families who are currently finding themselves in a difficult financial situation, we'd like to bring to your attention the Free School Meals scheme that could be claimed for your child. If you would like further information on the eligibility criteria and how to make a claim please visit the website of Thurrock Council.
During the Coronavirus outbreak the Government have temporarily extended the eligibility to Free School Meals to include some children of groups who have no recourse to public funds (NRPF). To find out if you may be eligible and to make an application please click HERE.
For those families already claiming Free School Meals:-
Due to the current school closures, children who are currently receiving free school meals now obtain the funding for this via a voucher scheme that they redeem at supermarkets. This voucher is to the value of £15.00 per week per eligible child. These families will have received a registration email from a company called Edenred in order to access these vouchers. If you have not yet claimed your voucher, please follow the link in the email sent by Edenred. If you have not received the email but think you should have, please contact the academy.
