Guest Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Hi. Just wondered if your LEA lets you use your funding over lunch times and also lets you charge for hot dinner? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panders Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Kent let us use funding over lunch time, don't know about hot food charges though, but as that is an "extra", maybe they would, as long as it is not a rule that they must have that to get the funding, so, they could if they wished, bring in a lunch from home. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarlettangel Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 (edited) I'm in worcestershire and part of our three hour entitlement includes half an hour for lunch. Whilst we are private we are attached to a school and if lunch time wasn't counted in our hours we couldn't open and close in line with school. Children can have hot lunch but they have to pay for it, but it is subsidised a little Edited February 25, 2016 by Scarlettangel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MegaMum Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 We have lunch club for an hour. Our LA asked me if during this hour we offered EYFS. Yes, washing hands, healthy eating, managing behaviour, etc etc....... the list is endless. Ok, he said, you can claim funding for lunch club.

Guest Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Yes, we use our funding for our lunch club, but the children bring in a packed lunch, we don't provide any food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
