Can my child be provided with a special diet?

Yes. Our caterers are able to provide medical, religious or cultural diets. We ask that you write to the Headteacher of your child's school stating the required diet. Medical diets will require a letter from a doctor or dietician.

Our caterers are happy to meet with you to discuss our menus to ensure that the food served conforms to the particular diet.

Our cooks receive training and advice on a wide range of dietary needs, including

nut allergies
egg free
gluten free - coeliac
diary free - lactose intolerant
diabetics
vegetarian/vegan
cultural/religious requirements

but please speak to your school if you have any concerns.
