Plymouth - Our menu and prices

Introducing our new menu for April 2023 to October 2023

From time to time your school may need to offer a slightly amended menu, we will work with our child’s school to produce a temporary menu. If this happens the school will have the details of the changes to the menu so they can share with their wider community.

You should check communications from your school regarding the offer in your child’s school

Spring - summer menu

Spring Summer Menu 2023

There could be slightly different versions of the main menu on offer in various schools for localised theme days so please contact us for the most up-to-date details on all allergens present in the menu and choices being offered at your child’s school at catering@catered.org.uk.

To get you the information swiftly please add in the name of the school that your child attends in the email.

All our units have the most up to date allergen details to work with and we can help you with all allergen enquiries so that you can choose the right meals for your child. Our kitchens also have a modified menu that works alongside the main menu so that there is choice available for all.

We encourage parents and carers to talk to us about any concerns they have regarding the meals. If you have any questions about the menu choices or allergens, please telephone your child’s school and ask to speak with Catering Manager or contact us at catering@catered.org.uk where we can arrange an individual appointment to talk through the menu.

Please remember to add in the school that your child attends to any communication.

Universal infant free school meals

All children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 are entitled to receive a free school meal every day regardless of household circumstances. So you can come in and have a great tasting meal every day and pay Ed nothing! We encourage everyone to take up this free offer!

Free school meals

If you think you may be entitled to free school meals (FSM) for your child under aged 7 and for older children, visit the free school meals page or by call the FSM team on 01752 307410 for more information. Eligibility for FSM also provides schools with additional income via the Pupil Premium. We encourage everyone one who’s eligible to take up this free offer!

Prices

The current price for a school lunch is listed on the individual menus.

Infant, junior, primary, and special schools: £2.60 – the price includes a main course, dessert, and drink

Secondary Special School: £2.65 – price includes a main course, dessert, and drink

Secondary schools and academies: £2.90 - the price includes a main course and dessert (the meal of the day) which meets the food-based and nutrient-based standards

To avoid disadvantaging or discriminating against any pupil or student, the available free school meal (for those registered as eligible) and the paid meal (the meal of the day) should both be available at the same value.

A cafeteria style service is operated in secondary schools so parents/carers and students should consider that if items are selected other than the meal of the day then the total cost of the selected meal could be different to the meal of the day price.
