Our school is now a member of the Lead Association for Catering in Education. We aim to work to maintain high standards in the school catering service, and thus make a major contribution to the health of future generations. Our menus can be viewed by following the link at the bottom of this page. 

 

 

At Waverley, we cater for those who have particular dietary requirements, but we also expect parents and carers to take up the free school meal entitlement so that all pupils can sit together for a nutritious lunch.

Please contact the school office if you think your child may be entitled to free school meals.Your child may be able to get free school meals if you are in receipt any of the following:

  • Income Support
  • income-based Jobseekers Allowance
  • income-related Employment and Support Allowance
  • support under Part VI of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999
  • the guaranteed element of State Pension Credit
  • Child Tax Credit (provided you’re not also entitled to Working Tax Credit and have an annual gross income of no more than £16,190)
  • Working Tax Credit run-on - paid for 4 weeks after you stop qualifying for Working Tax Credit
  • Universal Credit

Children who get any of the above benefits in their own right (ie they get benefits payments directly, instead of through a parent or guardian) can also get free school meals.
