School Milk – How do I order milk for my child?

Children in reception are provided with free school milk up until the week before they turn 5 and children whose parents are in receipt of certain benefits (see below), who qualify for free school meals, also receive school milk free of charge if their parent requests it.

If your child does not qualify for free school milk, register with our supplier Cool Milk at www.coolmilk.com before Tuesday at 5.00pm for your child to receive milk the following week.

If you live outside the Bradford district, you need to apply to your own local authority:

Free School Meals Eligibility Changes

The government has made changes to the eligibility criteria for pupils receiving free school meals. Free school meals are now available to any family in receipt of one of the following benefits:

  • Universal Credit with an annual net earned income of no more than £7,400 (£616.67 per month)
  • Income Support
  • Income-based Jobseeker’s Allowance
  • Income-related Employment and Support Allowance
  • Support under Part 6 of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999
  • The guarantee element of Pension Credit
  • Working Tax Credit run-on (paid for the four weeks after you stop qualifying for Working Tax Credit)
  • Child Tax Credit (with no Working Tax Credit) with an annual income of no more than £16,190
I don’t claim free school meals – do I need to do anything?

Registering your child not only provides free healthy meals every lunchtime, it raises an additional £1,345 for the school from the government. This money is used by the school to offer pupils invaluable additional support and to fund after-school activities. To check whether your child is eligible, please visit https://www.bradford.gov.uk/benefits/applying-for-benefits/free-school-meals/ to complete an application online.

I already receive free school meals – will I stop receiving them?

If you currently receive free school meals but don’t meet the new criteria outlined above, your child will continue to receive free school meals until the end of the Universal Credit rollout period – this will apply even if your earnings rise above the new threshold or you stop being entitled to Universal Credit.

Once Universal Credit is fully rolled out, your child will continue to receive free school meals until the end of their current phase of education, i.e. primary or secondary.

My child is in Reception, Year 1 or Year 2 – do I need to do anything?

Children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 currently receive universal infant free school meals, but if you think you may be eligible for free school meals, please make an application (see above).

Apart from free school meals, what will I receive?

Children registered for free school meals will also be eligible to receive free school milk and vouchers to assist with school uniform costs, a book bag, p.e. bag, and water bottle and either a session of after school clubs or 10 sessions at breakfast club. The total value of these benefits is over £100.

Where can I find out more?

The school office manager can help you if you have any questions. You can contact the school office via email: office@lowmoor-ce.uk or via telephone on 01274 600797.
