School lunches

The school’s catering service is provided by Taylor Shaw, caterer of choice for thousands of secondary school students across the UK.

We believe lunch is an integral part of the school day. When students sit down with friends, they cement relationships, enhance social skills, and replenish both their body and mind.

Our menus are exciting, nutritious, and appealing, served in a supportive environment designed to educate students about how they can make healthy choices to support their wellbeing and improve their ability to focus.

Our freshly prepared menus meet the Government’s School Food Standards and meet the bronze Food for Life standards.    

If your child has any special dietary requirements, please contact your child's pastoral leader directly.

In addition to the menu below, there will always be a selection of baguettes/sandwiches available.

Allergen Management 

At Taylor Shaw, all our colleagues are trained and up to date with allergen procedures and will provide accurate allergen information to your child. If your child has allergies, we would ask that they speak to our server for information so that they can be provided with the information they need to make an informed and safe choice. 

Eating a School Lunch is Good for Your Child 

Did you know only 1% of packed lunches meet the nutritional standards that currently apply to school food?  Five reasons school lunches are better:  

  • They save time & money. 
  • They’re nutritionally better than a packed lunch 
  • They promote a varied diet & encourage new tastes. 
  • They support inclusivity, dining with friends. 
  • They help academic attainment by being linked to improved concentration.
