Students can bring their own packed lunch, or buy food from the canteen. Students are not permitted to bring Energy Drinks to the Academy.

All students should bring a water bottle to stay hydrated at our water fountains.

The purchase of food is via a cashless system – ParentPay.

Prices are below:

Parents can upload money to ParentPay, or students can upload money using machines in the academy during the school day. Students then pay for food at break, or lunch, using a fingerprint or PIN number (this unique PIN is set up for students when they start in Year 7).

If parents/carers require support with this, they should email: [email protected] or call 0121 729 7220.

Students can buy sandwiches and wraps at break time, and a selection of hot food at lunch. Hot nutritional meals include fish, chicken, wraps, pasta, curry, jacket potatoes, chips, rice and sausage rolls. We also serve sandwiches, fruit, cake, cookies and drinks.
