Many young people at St Margaret Mary's Secondary School are entitled to Free School Meals - £1.90 per day toward the cost of food at school. This soon adds up and in a year totals around £350 that you may be missing out on.
If a young person already receives free school meals, and the family circumstances have not changed, then there is no need to re-apply.
If you are making a new application then you can do one of the following-
- Apply online by clicking here You will need to register and complete an online form. You will need to upload documents confirming eligibility.
- Apply using the paper application form which you can download here or collect from the school office. Full instructions are included on the form which can be posted or emailed - along with the required documents - to Glasgow City Council.
You can use the same form to apply for a clothing grant.
Can I get help filling in the form?
Yes. Come into school and your young person's Pastoral Care teacher or a member of the Senior Leadership Team will assist you
Do I need to re-apply every year?
No. Glasgow City Council have simplified the system so that if you are entitled to Free School Meals you only need apply once. Also - you can apply for a Clothing Grant on the same form.
