    Parents who have signed up previously do not need to re-register, they have already been included, but, to ensure we get all who are eligible, we are encouraging new parents to sign up as soon as they can.

     

    For parents who have already signed upif more of their children have become entitled to free school meals since they applied, please ask them to contact us so we can update their amount, as this not an automatic process.
