Expanding free school meals to families on Universal Credit is progress — but it’s not enough. Like Winter Fuel Payments, we need universality so no child is left behind and goes hungry. Universal free school meals should be the aim — we demand nothing less.

📢 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: Over half a million more children to get free nutritious #SchoolMeals every day in the #UnitedKingdom🇬🇧 starting September 2026, as part of Department for Education's plans to break down barriers to opportunity and give children a fair start in life. This historic

We urge the government to use this policy as a platform to provide universal free school meals for all children and to place the health needs of children and young people at the heart of their upcoming 10-Year Health Plan so that every child can fulfil their potential. 2/2

The Government extending free school meals to families on universal credit is a very welcome move. It was recommended by Baroness Ruth Lister in our report, 'The Good Society Starts Small'. But it can't stop there. Universal expansion and lifting the two-child limit next.

This is an incredible victory and one that will lift so many out of poverty. Big shout out to No Child Left Behind, the National Education Union, and everyone who campaigned for #FreeSchoolMealsForAll. 4.5 million children are trapped in poverty. It is time to end that.

🎉Huge News: 500,000+ more kids will now get Free School Meals🍽️Thank-you🌹 Proud of the #NoChildLeftBehind campaign & my daughter’s voice in this💙 We’re not done-let’s keep pushing for #FreeSchoolMeals for All✊🏼 #EndChildPoverty 🔁 RT & keep the pressure on No Child Left Behind

Tooth decay is the no.1 reason for hospital admissions among young children, and bad diets are fuelling it. Free School Meals is a simple step that can put prevention to work.

Congratulations to everyone who has taken part in the National Education Union’s No Child Left Behind Campaign. This movement on free school meals is down to you.

A huge well done to all the campaigners like No Child Left Behind who fought for this 👏 But kids will still fall through the cracks. Free school meals must be universal, there's no reason why schoolchildren in Wales & London can benefit from this while the rest of the UK doesn't.

🏆 Thank you Zarah Sultana MP for being an unstoppable force for #FreeSchoolMealsforAll 🥘🥗 From introducing a 10-minute rule bill to hosting a stop for our national tour in Coventry with Sky Blues in the Community and Coventry City. You've helped grow this movement to leave no child behind.

We are so grateful to have the support of football affiliated organisations like yourselves in our coalition, calling for #FreeSchoolMealsforAll. Thank you for spreading the word and helping us to achieve this historic victory⚽🥘

We welcome the decision announced today by Keir Starmer UK Prime Minister & Bridget Phillipson to extend free school meals to 500K more children. Kudos to parliamentary advocates & especially Sharon Hodgson who has been championing school feeding for almost 20 years. 🙌

Our coalition for #FreeSchoolMealsforAll is as strong as it is because of Sharon Hodgson. Thank you for your relentless work — from your very first visit to Sweden where you saw the power of universal school food — to your advocacy on our national tour stop last year.👏👏

We are delighted that the Government has announced plans to extend #FreeSchoolMeals to all families in England receiving Universal Credit. It is estimated that around 500,000 children will benefit from this change💚 This is a huge victory for the #FreeSchoolMeal Campaign!

Thank you, Bell Ribeiro-Addy MP, for your continued support for hot, healthy school dinners. This win brings us closer—but you're absolutely right, the goal must be universal Free School Meals so that every child has the essentials to thrive. Onwards! 🍽️

Perfectly said, PutChildrenFirst 👏 Providing Free School Meals for every child means no one slips through the cracks — and every child has the chance to thrive. Let’s keep going. 💪 #FreeSchoolMealsForAll

We are proud to be part of the No Child Left Behind coalition today as the Government extends Free School Meals to half a million more children: ow.ly/in8550W4T9t Now we need to ensure every primary school child can learn & thrive with the rollout of #FreeSchoolMealsforAll

Thank you for continuing to stand with us and backing hot, healthy school dinners, Diana Johnson DBE MP 🇬🇧🇺🇦🌈 🏆 This is a huge step, but we won't rest until we win Free School Meals for every child—no exceptions. Together, we can do this!

Thank you International Parliamentary Network for Education – we appreciate everything you do to inspire political leadership for equal educational opportunities for all.
