Do I need to apply for a special diet menu?
Vegetarians
We offer a daily vegetarian meal option. There is no need for you to apply for a special diet menu using this application system.
Nut allergies
Our school kitchens are nut free, and we ensure the ingredients we use are manufactured in a nut-free environment too - to control the risk of cross contamination. This means that all pupils with a nut allergy are able to eat from our standard menu, and do not need to register for a special diet.
Diabetics
You can find the carbohydrate count for each of our meals here. So there is no need to apply for a special diet menu.
