​​​​​Meals

At Tiffield Academy, all meals are freshly prepared on site each day. We offer a 3 week rotating lunch menu and all bookings and payments for school dinners are made via Arbor, on an online cashless school payment system. Please note that all meal choices must be ordered at least a day in advance.

Children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 are entitled to Universal Free School Meals (UFSM), while pupils in Years 3 to 11 who qualify for Free School Meals (FSM) will also receive a free meal. All parents must still book meals through Arbor, and the system will automatically recognise eligibility and apply charges (or not) accordingly. 

If you think you may be eligible for Free School Meals you must apply for them here:  Free school meals and pupil premium | West Northamptonshire Council.  Existing Free School Meal recipients must reapply for them each year.

Our three-week Summer Menu will remain in place and will be available until Friday, October 23rd. You will need to select one option for each day from the following choices: 

• Meat/Fish Option 

• Vegetarian Option

• Sandwich Option 1 

• Sandwich Option 2 

• Jacket Potato and Filling 

Please note: 

• Meals must be booked at least one day in advance. 

• Menus and associated allergen lists are always available on our website below. 

• We strongly encourage you to review these menus and allergen information before making any bookings, especially if your child has special dietary needs or allergies. 

• Desserts will be chosen by the children daily - please be assured that our lunch team are fully aware of children’s specific dietary needs and allergies, and they will ensure these are catered for. 

If your child has any special dietary needs that can’t be catered for from these menus, please email admin@tiffieldacademy.org with details and we will get back to you. 

Playtime

Our playgrounds are made up of two large areas. We have a separate playground for Reception and Year 1.  Both of these areas are equipped with games and activities to play with. The main playground has a trim trail, sensory garden and games court.  

Lunchtime is our favourite time of day when different year groups mix and interact with each other.  Lots of fun is had!
