Luxulyan School
School meals
Our school meal service is provided by Caterlink and the cost is £2.85 per meal, which includes a cooked meal and a dessert.
Families can book meals via ParentPay (booking by midnight on the Sunday).
Children in EYFS, year 1 and year 2 are entitled to universal infant free school meals. Be aware, you still need to book these meals on ParentPay but there will be no charge
Message from the School Meals department at Cornwall Council:
From September 2026, the Department for Education (DfE) will change the eligibility criteria for free school meals (this does not affect Universal Free School Meals which are available to children in Reception to Year 2):
• All households on Universal Credit will qualify. Income limits will no longer apply
• Free school meal entitlement will no longer be ‘protected’ once awarded. Instead, eligibility will automatically be checked at the start of each new school year
The current eligibility criteria will remain in place until the end of the 2025/26 academic year. During this time, claimants receiving Universal Credit must earn no more than £7,400 annually. This will be assessed using three of your most recent Universal Credit Statements.
If you believe your income is below this threshold but your application has been assessed as not eligible, please provide your last three months of Universal Credit statements in full for manual review. These can be submitted as screenshots or a PDF.

Free breakfast club
Luxulyan School is part of the government’s new breakfast club early adopters’ scheme, which means that we can provide pupils with a healthy and nutritious breakfast, free of charge.
The free breakfast club is available each day from 8.10am to 8.40am. Be aware, you need to book a place for your child on ParentPay, but there will be no charge. Booking should be made by Thursday of the week before.
Should you wish your child to attend from 8:00am there will be a small charge of £1.10.
Heathy packed lunches
We encourage all families to provide healthy, balanced packed lunches that give children the energy and nutrition they need to learn, play, and thrive throughout the school day.
A well-packed lunch supports concentration, wellbeing, and healthy habits for life.
Here are some tips, ideas, and guidance to help you create tasty and nutritious lunches your child will enjoy.
