Free School meals for all - September 23

Dear Parent/Carer, I’m delighted to inform you that City Hall is ensuring all primary school children who attend state schools in London will receive free school meals for the full academic year, starting this September. As Mayor of London, I know parents/carers are really struggling with the cost-of-living crisis right now. That’s why I’ve taken the decision to provide funding to expand on the Government’s limited existing free school meals offer. This means all state funded primary school children in London are now eligible for free school meals. The funding we’re providing will help up to 270,000 primary school children in London, like yours, access free school meals and could save your family upwards of £440 across the year.
