Free School Meals

Meals to cover the October half-term

Kent County Council is funding food vouchers this October half-term to those Kent families whose children receive benefits-related free school meals. 

Families will receive £15 per child for one week during the half-term period, issued by your local school.

If your child gets free school meals because they are in year 2 or below, you will still need to apply for benefits-related free school meals to get vouchers during the October break.

Contact your child's school if you are unsure what arrangements are being put in place for your family.

More details from the KCC website.
