Free School Meals
If you feel that your child may be entitled to a free school meal, please read the following information to assess whether he/she is eligible.
It is very important that you claim for these meals, even if your child does not want a cooked meal.
This is because, once you have registered your child as needing a free school meal, your child will be entitled to extra funding throughout their time at Fairfield Primary School.
This will enable our School to buy extra resources for your child.
Eligibility Criteria for 2018 - 2019
Parents do not have to pay for school meals if they are entitled to any of the following:
- Income Support
