Applications are open for Free School Meals and Uniform Allowances for the 2026/27 academic year.
Important info for applying:
- Add each child for whom you have parental responsibility and who will be attending full time at school or Regional/FE College to your application
- If children are aged over 16 and you’re unsure whether they will return to school or change schools, add on the application the child’s name and the name of the school your child waiting for results is most likely to attend
- Inform the Meals and Uniform Section by phone or in writing if this information changes. You can do this by emailing mealsanduniform@eani.org.uk
Your child’s funding will be delayed if you do not add them to your application before submitting.
