Please note we are a nut-free school and nursery.

Our school dinners are carefully prepared on site by Caterlink's fabulous lunch team.

The school provides a free meal for every child in Reception and Key Stage 1 and those entitled to free school meals across the school.   For those children in nursery and Key Stage 2 (years 3 to 6) a meal costs £2.71.  Should your child choose to have a school dinner there is no need to pre-order meals; the children make their choices on the day.  Meals must be paid for promptly via ParentPay.

You can, of course, provide your child with a healthy packed lunch (no nuts or products that contain nuts).

Free School Meals

As you may know, students from families who meet certain criteria (see below) may be eligible for Free School Meals and/or Pupil Premium funding. We want to ensure that we provide the best possible education here at Cirencester Primary, supporting students to climb their own personal mountain to the best universities or professions.  A healthy meal at lunchtime is an essential part of this.  We want to support our families to apply to receive this for free wherever possible.

If you receive one of the following benefits, please apply for your child’s Free School Meals:

• 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

If your application is successful your child/children will be eligible for one free hot meal per day from the school cafeteria. We encourage you to apply even if you have submitted an unsuccessful application in the past, or if you believe you are not entitled to additional funding.  Our experience is that families often qualify without realising.  The system re-checks details every term, and will automatically update our records if your status changes.
