Are your children eligible for Free School Meals?
Free school meals criteria
A child is eligible for free school meals if their parent or carer receives one or more of the following benefits:
- Income Support
- income-based Job Seekers’ Allowance
- income-related Employment and Support Allowance
- support under Part VI of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999
- the guaranteed element of State Pension Credit
- Child Tax Credit, provided you are not also entitled to Working Tax Credit, and have an annual gross income, of no more than £16,190 as assessed by His Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (Parents who are made redundant or start working less that 16 hours per week, may find their children are entitled to free meals for a limited period.)
- Working Tax Credit run-on – paid for 4 weeks after you stop qualifying for Working Tax Credit
- Universal Credit (before September 2026 provided you have an annual net earned income of no more than £7,400, as assessed by earnings from up to three of your most recent assessment periods, from September 2026 all pupils from families claiming universal credit)
If so, all you have to do is fill in the Free School Meals Application Form online.
Hampshire County Council has launched a new online service so parents can check their eligibility for free school meals themselves.
This self service option is available at https://apply.cloudforedu.org.uk/ofsm/hants

Young
Carers
A young carer is someone aged 18 or under who helps look after a relative who has a condition, such as a disability, illness, mental health condition, or a drug or alcohol problem. Most young carers look after one of their parents or care for a brother or sister.
Here at The Henry Beaufort School, we work with Winchester Young Carers, to support our young people whose lives are affected by caring for someone at home.
Within school, Mrs H Callen-Organ, Student Support & Guidance is the point of contact for young carers. This group is held every Wednesday 1st lunch in Mrs Callen-Organ office opposite BICT.
