Young people need to eat plenty of foods high in important nutrients to keep them healthy and growing properly, and help them to concentrate on their studies so they can learn more.
Choosing for your child to eat a ‘school meal’ provided by the Academy is a good way of ensuring that they eat healthily. School Meals also provide children with lots of energy-foods, needed to ensure that they can be active enough to keep them physically fit without eating too many foods high in fat and sugar.
We've partnered with Innovate, part of Impact Food Group, to bring modern, exciting dining experiences to our school. Every day, students can enjoy freshly prepared food packed with flavour, variety, and choice - whether grabbing something quickly or sitting down to enjoy a hot meal with friends.
Main Meals
Freshly cooked hot meals are served every day, including popular favourites such as roast dinners and pasta bakes. Each meal is served with vegetable sides and a dessert.
Grab & Go
Perfect for busy days - students can choose from wraps, salads, pasta pots and more. Everything is freshly made, easy to carry, and full of flavour.
Chill Deal
Our Chill Deal is a great value cold meal option. Simply chose four chilled items marked with the Chill Deal logo for one set price. Pick from favourites like rolls, yogurts, fruit pots and small home bakes - ideal for busy days.
StreetVibes - Made Your Way
StreetVibes brings a taste of the high street into the school restaurant, with bold flavours and a build-your-own style that puts students in charge. It's all about choice, flavour and fun! StreetVibes runs Tuesday to Thursday, with a different concept taking centre stage on alternating weeks. The idea stays simple every time:
With loads of combinations available each week, meals can be mixed and matched to suite every taste.
Naturally
Our Naturally range offers a wide variety of vegetarian and vegan-friendly options, including fresh salads, wraps, fruit pots, and baked snacks - perfect if you're looking to try more plant-based choices.
Breakfast
Start your day the right way with a tasty breakfast! Choose from toast and spreads, croissants, cereal, pancakes with syrup, or a free porridge breakfast. With plenty of options, there’s something for everyone to fuel up and get ready for the day ahead.
Breaktime - PowerBites
PowerBites are smaller portions of popular favourites packed with energy, perfect for keeping you going through the day. Available as snack pots at breaktime for just £1.35 each, they’re ideal when you need a quick pick-me-up.
Free School Meals (FSM) make it easy for everyone to enjoy healthy, tasty food at school every day.
If eligible, the allowance is added automatically to the student’s account, so meals can be chosen just like everyone else — no separate queue, no extra steps at the till.
