Support for pupils who have to stay at home
Under normal circumstances, schools do not provide free school meals to eligible children who are not in school. During the national lockdown, we expect schools to continue supporting children eligible for benefits-related free school meals who are at home during term time.
Schools may consider working with their school catering team or food provider to provide good quality lunch parcels to eligible free school meal pupils who are at home.
The steps schools take during this national lockdown period will depend on local circumstances.
This could include:
providing lunch parcels through the school catering team or food provider
providing vouchers for a local shop or supermarket
using the Department for Education (DfE)’s national voucher scheme, which will reopen on 18 January 2021
So maybe its the schools themselves

Providing lunch parcels through the school catering team or food provider
Schools can work with their school catering team or food provider to provide lunch parcels to eligible free school meal pupils who are at home.
The government provides schools with funding to cover benefits-related free school meals. Schools can claim for additional funding of £3.50 per week for each eligible pupil receiving lunch parcel provision at home.
The benefits of providing lunch parcels include:
the confidence that a nutritious and varied range of food is being provided in line with guidance published by the Lead Association for Catering in Education, and that meets the school food standards
being able to quickly set up provision as many school caterers will have experience of delivering food parcels
supporting safeguarding through the opportunity to maintain regular contact with vulnerable pupils and ensure they receive healthy nutritious food
reducing the risk of food waste, which catering suppliers may have already purchased
We have been working with the school food industry to explore the best possible arrangements where lunch parcels are needed.
Schools and families may find weekly collections of lunch parcels easier than a more frequent approach. Where parents are unable to collect the parcel, they can tell the school that they have asked a friend, volunteer or family member to collect it on their behalf.
Schools may wish to work with other local schools to provide food boxes where they are easier to deliver or collect from one location, or when supporting multiple children from the same family who attend different schools.
Lunch parcels should:
contain food items rather than pre-prepared meals due to food safety considerations
minimise the fridge and freezer space that schools and families will need to store foods
contain items which parents can use to prepare healthy lunches for their child/children across the week
not rely on parents having additional ingredients at home to prepare meals
not contain items restricted under the school food standards
cater for pupils who require special diets, for example, allergies, vegetarians or religious diets - schools should ensure there are systems in place to avoid cross-contamination
contain appropriate packaging sizes for household use, rather than wholesale sizes
Guidance on free school meals has been produced by the Lead Association for Catering in Education, Public Health England and the Department for Education (DfE). It sets out some general principles for putting together a lunch parcel which will allow parents and carers to prepare simple and healthy lunches for their children at home across the week.
Lunch parcels must be distributed in line with guidance on social distancing at all times.
