Academy Lunches
At lunchtime we encourage children to have an Academy meal. These are cooked on site and are nutritionally balanced. We always offer a choice including vegetarian and Halal - menus are available below.
Our catering is managed by Sodexo, a professional company offering nutritious breakfasts, mid-morning breaktime snacks, and a lunches to our students. A set lunch costs £2.40 per day with menus rotated on a four week basis. Students entitled to free school meals do not pay for lunch. Your child may be entitled to a free school meal every day.
Alternatively children may bring a packed lunch. We ask parents and carers providing packed lunches to choose healthy options with a balanced selection of food including fruit and vegetables, juice and/or water. Students are encouraged to bring a water bottle to school each day which can be refilled at our fountains.
For information on how you can pay for your child's Academy lunches please see our Parent Pay page.
