If your child qualifies for Targeted Free School Meals.

Pupil Premium funding helps schools provide extra support, resources and opportunities for eligible pupils.Expanded free school meals are for children in households receiving Universal Credit whose annual net earnings exceed the standard £7,400 threshold.
