Your child has the option of purchasing meals from our new catering providers, Innovate, on site in one of our dining halls.
They have a huge variety of really exciting dishes to try! We’re talking about global street food, their famous curry Thursdays, modern vegetarian and traditional fish and chips. There’s something for everyone to enjoy.
In addition to great food in great environments, Innovate are committed to becoming an ‘Impact Organisation’ and doing whatever they can to create a better world. They operate a sustainable and responsible business model, minimising packaging (especially plastics), food waste and energy consumption, whilst maximising recycling and composting.
From Easter there will be a slight increase in our pricing of food. Details of the increases can be found here together with a letter here explaining the reasoning behind the increase.

Primary Children
Primary children will only access the dining hall during lunch time, where there will be a choice of three meal items. The three-week menu cycle for Primary is below. You will also see below instructions on how to set up your child's on line account. If you have any queries relating to Primary lunches, please email primary@impactfood.co.uk.
Secondary Students
Secondary students will have access to the dining hall at break and at lunch time and will have the flexibility to purchase a variety of items including hot and cold meal deals as well as snack items and breakfast. As a great addition, we will also be offering breakfast from 7.45am. The three-week menu cycle for Secondary and details of their amazing £2.34 Blue Dot Deal can be found below:
Current Free School Meals (FSM) Children
For Primary pupils entitled to Free School Meals (FSM), parents need to chose their meal via the ordering system and it will show as a zero charge on their account.
All Secondary pupils who are a FSM are able to choose any two items at lunchtime for their allowance. Just not two cakes!!
This means that Secondary pupils with a FSM allowance do not need to worry about choosing items priced within the free school meal allowance. If pupils choose three items or more, the most expensive and cheapest items will form part of the FSM meal deal and the other items will be chargeable.
Please note that with this change, FSM allowance can only be claimed at lunchtime, in line with government guidance. If pupils would like to use the restaurant at morning break, this will sit outside of the FSM allowance.
