Applications for Free School Meals

Westminster City Council has launched a new online application system to make applications for free school meals (FSM) quicker and easier for parents and carers.

Advice regarding free school meals is also available from Paddington Academy.

Important information regarding changes to holiday vouchers for students on free school meals

The Government National Scheme funding for free school meal vouchers during the holidays will come to an end in July 2026. 

For students who live outside of Westminster Borough, no more vouchers will be issued during the holidays, this includes the summer holidays.

For students living inside Westminster Borough, the last holiday vouchers will be issued in July 2026.

Please note that this does not affect free school meals during term time.

All students in school years 7, 8 and 9 will continue to receive free school meals during term time.

During the holidays, children who are entitled to free school meals can sign up for the Holiday Activities and Food (HAF) Programme, which provides free activities and a healthy meal during school holidays.  You can find out more and sign up here:
