Pay for school meals

Pay online for school meals for primary or middle school children and read about the choice of food provided.

Suffolk County Council no longer provides an online payment service for school meals, trips or uniforms.

Individual schools now look after payments. Your child's school will be happy to help, so please contact them for more information.


About school meals

Lunches provided in primary schools include a hot two-course meal with the choice of main courses, vegetables, salads and desserts. There's also a vegetarian option and options for some special dietary requirements. 

Secondary schools provide a cafeteria area for pupils to buy food with their own money. Prices and the choice of food offered can vary between schools.

Middle schools either have a traditional meal service like primary schools or a cafeteria-style service similar to secondary schools.

For further details of lunchtime menus, visit the Eats website, part of Vertas Ltd, which is wholly owned by Suffolk County Council.
