Healthy choices, enjoyable mealtimes
School Meals & Lunchtimes
At Newman School, we want lunchtime to be a positive and enjoyable part of every pupil’s school day. Our school meal provision aims to offer good-quality, inclusive and affordable food, while recognising the individual needs of the children and young people we support.
Menus are chosen with the school and are designed to be allergen and culturally aware, helping us provide appropriate choices for our pupils.
We recognise that some pupils may have individual dietary, medical, sensory or feeding requirements. Parents and carers are encouraged to speak to the school where their child has specific needs so that these can be understood and appropriate arrangements discussed.
Communication
Finding a voice. Building connections.
We support every pupil to develop meaningful ways to communicate, express their choices and build positive relationships with the people and world around them.
Independence
Building skills for life.
We create opportunities for pupils to make choices, develop practical skills and become increasingly confident and independent in their learning and everyday lives.
Resilience
Growing confidence. Embracing challenges.
We support pupils to experience new opportunities, overcome challenges and develop the confidence and resilience they need for learning, adulthood and their future.
