Parent Guide of how to use the new system

The cost of a school meal is £2.40, this equates to £12.00 per week. Meals are free universally for children in Reception – Year 2 and these charges only come into effect when a child enters Year 3.

Regardless what year group your child is in, meals should be ordered via Evolve at least two school weeks in advance. This allows for the kitchen to place accurate food orders. If you have been unable to place your order in time, your child will receive a jacket potato with a filling of the day and fresh fruit. Please ensure that you process your basket in order for the meal choices to go through.

Please note, we do not provide lunches for Nursery children. All Nursery children require a packed lunched to be brought in with them.

The school office requires at least two school weeks’ notice if your child wishes to change from a school meal to packed lunch and visa versa.

Payments for meals are made through Evolve at the time of booking.  You will be contacted by the school office if we have not received payment from you for school dinners and in accordance with Trafford Council Best Practice, meals may be stopped if balances are outstanding. If you require additional support with paying for your child’s school meals, please contact the school office.
