Free School Meals for infants at state schools

17 Sep 2013

From next September every child in infant school in England will get free school meals, saving families around £437 a year.

This is one of the most important changes in our education system for a generation. A hot, healthy meal at lunchtime for all children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 will raise school standards and cut the attainment gap.

It would also never have happened without the Liberal Democrats in Government, fighting to cut the cost of living for millions of parents who are feeling the squeeze.
