We are delighted that the Government has announced plans to extend #FreeSchoolMeals to all families in England receiving Universal Credit.

It is estimated that around 500,000 children will benefit from this change 💚

This is a huge victory for the #FreeSchoolMeal Campaign!

“This is great news and something we’ve long campaigned for...It is really good to see such a positive statement from the government on tackling the scourge of child poverty. There is much more to be done but this is a welcome step forward."
ASCL welcomes #freeschoolmeal expansion: ow.ly/XNxK50W4aHJ

Exciting to see @scottishgov.bsky.social commitment to expand #FreeSchoolMeal eligibility to wider cohort of secondary pupils as part of agreement with @scottishgreens.org

Cross-party consensus on putting children first - we like it 😀
