Free School Meals

If you receive Universal Credit, your child will be eligible for Free School Meals from September 2026. The income gap has been lifted, but you still need to apply through your local authority.

You may also qualify if you receive:

  • Income-related Employment and Support Allowance
  • Support under Part VI of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999
  • Guaranteed element of Pension Credit
  • Child Tax Credit (provided you're not also entitled to Working Tax Credit and have an annual gross income of no more than £16,190)
  • Working Tax Credit run-on - paid for 4 weeks after you stop qualifying for Working Tax Credit

Children who receive these benefits directly (instead of through a parent or guardian) can also get Free School Meals.

Find further information and how to apply on your local authority's website.
