Important updates to Free School Meals in Wales

Free school meals Welsh Government have announced they are expanding Free School Meals in Secondary Schools for all pupils whose parent/carer/guardian is in receipt of Universal Credit, regardless of earnings. This is called “Extended Free School Meals”.

This will initially be for all Year 7 and 8 pupils and will only cover the food element of Free School Meals. Parents whose children receive Extended Free School Meals only will not be eligible for the Schools Essentials Grant.

Applications are now welcome from parents, carers and guardians whose children are in Year 7 and Year 8 and qualify for Extended Free School Meals.

Recently, some DRC and STF pupils were lucky enough to attend the Swansea Para Sport Festival.

We had an amazing day trying out a variety of sports including wheelchair basketball, bike running, tennis and gymnastics. Everyone enjoyed trying out new sports.

Watch out for us in the Paralympics in a few years time.
