Special diets and allergy awareness

We want every child to enjoy a nutritious school lunch that meets their dietary needs. Our trained catering team can cater for allergies, intolerances and religious or other dietary requirements, including halal, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and egg-free meals.

Please discuss your child’s requirements with Joanne Oakley, Catering Manager, at joanne.oakley@prioryschool.com, so that suitable arrangements can be agreed before meals are provided.

Priory is an allergy-aware school. Food containing peanuts or tree nuts as an ingredient must not be brought onto the school site. Chocolate spread is not permitted, and children must not share food. These expectations apply to packed lunches, snacks, treats and food brought to school events.

We take precautions to reduce risks, but cannot guarantee a completely allergen-free environment. Please tell the School Office promptly about any diagnosed or suspected allergy, provide current medical information and notify us of any changes. Where required, we will work with you to agree an Individual Healthcare Plan or allergy action plan.

Our kitchen holds a food hygiene rating of 5—the highest rating. You can view the school’s food hygiene rating here.
