School Meals at Fielding

Most children enjoy a hot school meal, freshly prepared each day by our caterers, ISS, in our school kitchen. We encourage all pupils to take up this healthy and convenient option.

Daily Options Include:

• Meat or fish (Halal option)
• Vegetarian choice
• Freshly baked bread
• Salad bar
• Dessert and/or fresh fruit

Meals follow a three-week rotating menu that meets all government nutritional standards.
Children can mix and match hot meals and packed lunches—no need to pre-book or give notice.

Meals are served in the Dining Hall and Main Hall, where children eat together with their class.

We are part of the Ealing Schools Catering Consortium (ESCC), which manages catering contracts for most Ealing primary schools. The next contract review is due in September 2027.

Free school meals for every child

For this academic year, school meals are free for all pupils.  The Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan is providing the funding as an emergency cost of living support measure.

Free School Meals & Pupil Premium

All pupils now receive a free school meal, but families on low incomes should still complete the Free School Meals application form.

Why?
Completing the form helps us identify pupils eligible for the Pupil Premium Grant, which provides extra support through our Pupil Premium Passport.

Even if your child already receives a free meal, applying ensures they don’t miss out on additional benefits.
