​​​​​​​Applying for free school meals

Ark Byron Primary Academy is committed to healthy eating and all pupils have a hot school lunch which is prepared onsite every day by our in-house chef and her team.

All meals are low in sugar, fat and salt and are rotated on a three weekly basis. We can usually cater for special dietary needs. Packed lunches are only allowed if medical reasons (accompanied by a doctor's recommendation) mean that a hot school meal is not suitable. Choices of food are not offered because we believe that children should be encouraged to sample new foods and develop their tastes.

We have a team who support the teaching team at lunchtimes. Promoting good table manners is important to our lunchtimes.

NB We are a nut free school.

Our chef (Miss Bridget Walker) has devised some delicious menus. Please see below menus for Summer term 1.

Choices of food are not offered because we believe that children should be encouraged to sample new foods and develop their tastes.
