Paying for Primary School Meals

As of September 24 the London Mayor Sadiq Khan has extended the Mayors meal scheme for a further 12 months until the end of the Summer term 2025, this means that all KS2 children within the London Borough of Havering will be entitled to a free school meal under the scheme, which is a perfect opportunity to re-introduce your child to have a nutritious meal and saves you as the parent having to make a packed lunch.

Depending upon how your child’s school operates, you can either order your child’s meal in advance on ParentPay (which you will need to create an account) or order in the classroom.

Paying for Primary school meals from September 25

All our Primary and Special schools will use ParentPay to pay for school dinners, so you will need to have created an account for your child and top up so you child can purchase a school meal. Your school should provide you with a letter including your unique registration number to create your account.

The advantages of going cashless is your child is guaranteed the meal they ordered in the morning, as parents you can see what your child has ordered for lunch, no more lost dinner tickets and in some schools you can pre-order your child’s meal for the week ahead.

ParentPay is quick and easy to use via your smartphone, tablet or PC.
