it is important for parents to check their eligibility online so that we can provide your child with a lunch free of charge

Is your child entitled to free school meals?

Due to the introduction of Universal Credit, Manchester City Council will no longer be able to tell us which students are entitled to free school meals. For this reason, it is important for parents to check their eligibility online so that we can provide your child with a lunch free of charge and also receive additional funding which we will use to support your child’s education.

What do I need to do?
