NAWTON COMMUNITY PRIMARY SCHOOL - SCHOOL MEALS AND SCHOOL TRANSPORT
SCHOOL MEALS
We operate a single meal menu, with a vegetarian option, which rotates on a three-weekly cycle, allowing the children to become familiar with the food served. Each meal comes with a pudding or a choice of fruit/yoghurt. Alongside our hot school meals, children also have the option of either a sandwich; or a jacket potato

From September 2025, school dinners cost £3.90 per day or £2.90 per day if your child is in Nursery. Our preferred option to pay for dinner’s is ParentPay which should remain in credit to pay for meals as they are taken. All pupils in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 are entitled to a Universal Infant Free School Meal. Our cook Mrs Simpson takes great pride in her cooking and presentation and produces lovely meals for the children. She is always available at the start of the school day if you have any questions.
FREE SCHOOL MEALS

- income-related employment and support allowance
- child tax credit with an income of less than £16,190 and not in receipt of working tax credit

Where parents are entitled to working tax credit during a four week "run on" period immediately after their employment has ceased, or after they have started to work less than 16 hours per week, their children are entitled to free school meals.

Applications are usually processed the same day. If your child is entitled to free school meals you will receive a letter confirming the date when the meals will start. The school is also notified that your child is entitled to free school meals. In the meantime, you should continue to pay for free school meals until confirmation comes through. Schools may be able to arrange a reimbursement of any monies paid whilst your entitlement is being confirmed. If you are not entitled to free school meals you will be notified in writing.
