Clothing grant

If you qualify for a clothing grant you are entitled to an award of £120 per child attending primary school, and £150 per child attending secondary school.

The school clothing grant is only paid once per year. If your child is returning to school for fifth or sixth year, payment will be made when they have returned to school for the new August term and the school has confirmed attendance.

School meals

If you qualify for free school meals an allowance will be added to your child’s ParentPay account. This will allow them to choose a standard two course meal daily.

All children in Primary 1 to 5 are automatically entitled to universal free school meals.

From February 2025, that provision has been extended to include pupils in Primary 6 and 7, where families have confirmed they are in receipt of the Scottish Child Payment.
