We are experiencing an issue with the myed app where if parents close the app shortly after sending the message but before it arrives in the school`s inbox (it can take 10-15 seconds for the message to arrive) the message will not be sent until the open the app again.

We have raised this to the attention of their development team who are currently working on resolving this.

In the meanwhile, please can we suggest not to close the app straight after sending the message, and to check the indicator under the message and make sure that it turned to green before you close the app (you might need to navigate away from the inbox and back again for it to show green)

There is a special menu on offer on our Census Day - Thursday 7th October. See poster for full details.

All children in EYFS, Year 1 and Year 2 receive Universal Free School Meals. Every child in these year groups is encouraged to try something on the menu, however if you would prefer that your child is not offered the sample menu, please let the office know. You are welcome to also supply your child with a packed lunch, and they can try the menu and still have their packed lunch.

All children in EYFS, Year 1 and Year 2 receive Universal Free School Meals, however you may also be eligible for Free School Meals. The office team will be available in EYFS to help new parents with the application at the start and end of the day on Monday 4th and Tuesday 5th October. During the pandemic, the Government launched the Free school meals holiday voucher scheme. This is a way of providing funds to ensure families of children who are eligible for free school meals during term time are able to purchase food over the holidays to replace the meals a child would have received during a school day.

Holiday Activity and Food Programme (HAF)

The HAF came about because of Marcus Rashford’s campaign Marcus Rashford: Food voucher campaign changed government policy - CBBC Newsround. Marcus Rashford wanted the Government to provide all children with access to a food voucher, food box or a hot meal every day of the school holidays. The HAF Programme is funded by the Department for Education and children who are eligible for benefit related Free School Meals (FSM) are given the opportunity to access rewarding activities alongside healthy meals during school holidays, offering valuable support to families on lower incomes.

In response to this programme, Devon Early Years and Childcare Service (DEYCS) delivered an extensive summer programme which was very successful and are now planning the Christmas programme.

Hi, Are you eligible for free school meals? Join up before the end of term and receive a free jumper and tie (offer applies to new applicants only).
