Free School Meals Form
If you are entitled to Free School Meal you can apply by either:
by completing the Education Benefits Form
or
by completing the online form on the Parent Portal at www.york.gov.uk/freeschoolmeals
What are the qualifying benefits?
If you receive an income-related benefit such as Income Support, income-related
Employment and Support Allowance, or income-based Jobseekers Allowance you
will be entitled.
You may also be entitled if you receive Universal Credit or Child
Tax Credits and your annual household income is below £16,190.
You will not be entitled if you receive Working Tax Credit, unless you have very recently started to
claim, in which case free school meals can be provided only for a four week period.
