Beef off the menu as school dinner costs rise
Caterers reported seeing cost increases of between 20 to 30% for many products, with prices often fluctuating weekly.
Schools in England set the price they charge parents, so the cost of school dinners will vary. Laira Green Primary charges £2.20 per meal. For children in England from Year 3 onwards, only those from families on the very lowest incomes are entitled to a free meal at school, and the daily rate for that is currently about £2.47.
In Wales, the rising cost of food may have a knock-on effect on the funding needed for ambitious plans to offer a free school meal to every child in primary school from 2024.In its response to the independent food strategy in England, the government did not address a call to allow all children from families receiving universal credit to have a free hot meal at school.
