Payment Information
Payment for school meals is made using our online payment system ParentPay.
When your child joins Barrowcliff School you will be provided with a Parentpay invitation letter and unique joining code. ParentPay is an online payment facility and can be accessed on a mobile phone, tablet or computer or, if you don't have internet access, by Paypoint card. Payment is made directly from your debit/credit card. Further information on ParentPay and how to get started is available here.
We must receive payment for school meals in advance. This can be paid daily, weekly, monthly, half-termly or termly. The current price is £2.20 per day, or £11.00 per week. Nursery children are welcome to stay for a school lunch, the current price of a nursery meal is £1.70 per day. Children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 receive a government-funded school meal free of charge.
Free School Meals
If you claim certain benefits your child may be eligible for free school meals and pupil premium funding. More information on eligibility and how to apply can be found here or by visiting the North Yorkshire Council free school meal webpage here. Applications are processed by North Yorkshire Council, not the school.
Packed Lunches
If your child would prefer to bring a packed lunch, please ensure your child’s food is packed into a named bag and that your child has a drink. Sweets, chocolate bars and fizzy drinks are not permitted as part of a packed lunch. Any food your child does not eat is returned home in his/her lunch box.
Lunchtime Supervision
At lunchtime our team of midday assistants supervise the children while eating and during their lunchtime play.
Special Dietary Requirements
These can be catered for, please contact the school office for further details. Mrs Hill, our cook, is always happy to meet with parents to discuss your child's needs.
