SCHOOL MEALS
Secondary Pupils
School meals are catered for by Harrison Catering Service, a long-established catering company who specialise in preparing delicious and nutritious food for young people.
We operate a cashless payment system, ParentPay. Parents must pay in advance for their child's meals via the ParentPay portal, by selecting Aylesbury Vale Academy School Meals. Once your child's Parentpay account is in credit, they are able to make their own choice about which meal they would like on the day on which the meal is taken.

Packed Lunch
Parents who prefer their child to bring a packed lunch to school, are requested to ensure that food is brought in a sturdy container and that drinks are in secure, unbreakable flasks. Containers should be clearly named! All packed lunches should contain a sandwich or suitable alternative and fruit and should not include sweets or fizzy drinks. For further advice on packed lunches please consult your child’s class teacher or learning support assistant.
Free School Meals
Parents and carers receiving certain benefits may be eligible for Free School Meals based on their family circumstances. If you think you may qualify, please complete the application form HERE (or click on image below).
Alternatively, download and complete the Free School Meals Form (below) and email the completed form to freeschoolmeals@theacademy.me.
We strongly encourage eligible parents to apply, even if their child does not intend to have school meals. A successful Free School Meals application not only supports families but also helps the school secure Pupil Premium funding, which is used to enhance classroom resources and provide additional learning support.
Applications for Free School Meals and Pupil Premium are handled confidentially and with sensitivity.
