School Meals, Trips and Extended Care Nursery Payments
School Meals are £11.50 per week (£2.30 per day).
School Meals, Trips and Extended Nursery Care payments are made using Bury Council's payment website. You can pay online which can be accessed from the 'Pay for It' link below or alternatively by ringing 0845 3052197. You will need your child's UPN (unique pupil number) to pay online and this can be obtained from the school office.
Free School Meal Entitlement and Pupil Premium Grant
If you are in receipt of certain benefits, you may be eligible to claim for free school meals (this is separate to the Universal meal entitlement scheme).
If you are in receipt of the qualifying benefits and register, your child will also receive £1320 per year Pupil Premium Grant. Even if your child choses sandwiches as a meal option or is having a 'Universal' free meal, it is important that you register your child so you do not miss out on this valuable funding to support your child's education.
Your child is eligible for free school meals if you’re in receipt of one of the following benefits:
Universal Credit with an annual net earned income of no more than £7,400.
Income Support
Income-based Jobseeker’s Allowance
Income-related Employment and Support Allowance
Support under Part 6 of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999
The guarantee element of Pension Credit
Working Tax Credit run-on (paid for the four weeks after you stop qualifying for Working Tax Credit)
Child Tax Credit (with no Working Tax Credit) with an annual income of no more than £16,190
