Staff are trained to accommodate medical diets and work in partnership with parents to ensure these needs are met.

We have also made the commitment to develop sustainable kitchens where we can grow our own produce in school gardens. **Fresh & Nutritious** Healthy, nutritionally balanced meals using fresh ingredients. **Inclusive Catering** Staff are trained to accommodate medical diets and individual needs. **Sustainable Kitchens** Reducing food miles and waste while developing opportunities to grow our own produce. **Free School Meals** All pupils at Key Stage 1 (Reception, Year 1 and Year 2) are currently entitled to a free school meal. ### Chadwick’s Kitchen Documents School Meal Prices - April 2026 450 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bishop-chadwick-catholic-education-trust/files/documents/School_Meal_Prices_-_April_2026.png) Updated information on school meal prices and options from April 2026 - Our Menus - Free School Meals - Medical Diets ## Our Menus Primary School Menu (April – October 2026) 3.50 MB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bishop-chadwick-catholic-education-trust/files/documents/Full_Menu_3_Weeks_SS_2026(1).pdf) Sample Secondary School Menu 1011 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/bishop-chadwick-catholic-education-trust/files/documents/Chadwicks_kitchen_secondary_menu_2025.pdf) ## Free School Meals **All pupils at Key Stage 1 (Reception, Year 1 and Year 2) are currently entitled to a free school meal, please speak to your School Office for more information.** Pupils in any year group whose parents or guardians meet certain criteria can get access to FREE school meals this also unlocks additional funding for school so if you are eligible, please do apply. #### Visit your local council website for details: - [Link to Durham Council](http://www.durham.gov.uk/freeschoolmeals) - [Link to Sunderland Council](http://www.togetherforchildren.org.uk/free-school-meals) - [Link to South Tyneside Council](https://bit.ly/3NtgBtzSouthTynesideFreeSchoolMeals) ## Medical Diets **As part of The Trust’s mission to nourish the young minds of our customers, we strive to provide customers with medical diets with the same opportunities to enjoy our food as their peers and we are committed to making reasonable adjustments for medical diets, providing it is safe to do so. We believe it is our responsibility to encourage customers to try new foods as part of a balanced diet therefore we do not accommodate for taste aversions or preferences and will not consider this a medical diet requirement.** A medical diet is defined as a diet whereby the standard school menu is unsuitable and requires adaptation to be made safe for a customer due to a medically diagnosed dietary requirement. If your child needs access to a medical diet you just need to complete the form below and provide a medical note, dated within the last 6 months and return this to your School.
