Written Question
Free School Meals: Nuneaton
Thursday 12th June 2014

Asked by: Marcus Jones (Conservative - Nuneaton)

Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many children in schools in Nuneaton will receive free school meals from 2014-15.

Answered by David Laws

The information requested is not available. Receipt of a free school meal is dependent upon eligible parents or pupils making an application, and it is not possible to predict how many will do so.

We do, however, recognise that 631 pupils in reception, year 1 and 2 were known to be eligible for and claiming free school meals in Nuneaton constituency in January 2014. This was 18.7% of all pupils in those year groups. With the introduction of universal infant free school meals in September 2014, all children in reception, year 1 and year 2 will be eligible for a free school lunch.
