Universal Primary Free School Meals UPFSM
In line with the Welsh Government Initiative to provide all Primary school children in Wales with a free school meal by 2024, Newport City Council will extend the universal offering from September 2023 to include year’s 3 – 6. Therefore, all children from Reception to Year 6 will receive a free school meal. This commitment is in response to the rising cost-of-living pressures on families and our shared ambitions of tackling child poverty to ensure that no child goes hungry in school.
