FME and Clothing grants Application Forms

 

FME (Free School Meals Entitlement) and Clothing Grants

Students who are eligible for Free School Meals are given the cash equivalent of £1.70 per day to spend on a meal. Children who attend nurseries may also be entitled provided that they are in receipt of one of the below qualifying benefits and the establishment signs the application to confirm that the child has a full time place.

All school meals in Glasgow's primary and secondary schools are provided by Cordia (Services) LLP, part of Glasgow City Council. The dining area in schools is called the Fuel Zone and offers a great value service where pupils can enjoy a tasty and healthy lunch.

Clothing Grants of £47 per child are available to eligible students who attend Primary, Secondary and Additional Support Needs Establishments.
