  • income-based Jobseeker’s Allowance
  • income-related Employment and Support Allowance
  • support under Part VI of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999

To apply, simply ring 03000 415123 (local Area Education Office) with details of your name, date of birth and National Insurance number and an immediate on-line decision can be given. Or you can complete a short application form - https://www.cloudforedu.org.uk/ofsm/kent/

Once you have applied and been granted free school meals for your children you do not need to re-apply annually. Your children will continue to receive the meals until you cease to be entitled. The council will contact you should this arise.
