Free School Meals Update

The Department for Education has introduced major national changes to Free School Meals eligibility. From September 2026, the eligibility criteria have expanded, meaning over 500,000 additional children across the UK may now qualify for free school meals. This includes all households currently receiving Universal Credit, regardless of income thresholds.
