You now need to pre-book your child's school dinners on the School Gateway app in order to ensure that they receive a school dinner.  If you do not pre-book your child's meal, they will only be able to have a sandwich option from the kitchen that day.

To book a meal you need to:

Please note that dinners must be paid for at the point of booking (unless you get free school meals).  

If you have an outstanding dinner debt, you will not be able to book a dinner online until the debt is paid.  You must contact the office to discuss clearing this and send a packed lunch into school with your child.  If your child arrives to school without a packed lunch, you will be contacted to bring one in for them.

Please check that you are able to book meals in advance of returning to school and email any issues regarding logging in or any other dinner related queries to schooldinners@uplandsmanor.sandwell.sch.uk
