Free school meals in Hillingdon are currently in place for reception to year 2 children and pupils from low-income families. Parents and carers need to speak to their child’s school directly to find out how to access them, because schools handle them differently.
| Who it’s for | How to apply / access |
|---|---|
| Reception to Year 2 children | Contact your child’s school directly for information on how they provide free school meals |
| Pupils from low-income families | Contact your child’s school directly to check eligibility and the school’s process |
Hillingdon says some schools provide meals through their own caterers, while others use external caterers and may ask parents to pre-order. More information comes through the school rather than a council application form.
