Catering & School Meals
Our school meals are provided by Caterlink. We were impressed by the quality of food they provide and their commitment to high quality and locally sourced ingredients.
Caterlink’s menus are nutritionally balanced, full of local flavours and tailored to suit our school. They not only meet, but exceed government guidelines. They bring lots of fresh ideas to help our students understand healthy eating habits.
Students can purchase food at school and parents can use the SCOPAY app for topping up accounts. Every student is given a swipe card, which allows user access to their own lunch account. These accounts can be credited by parents via SCOPAY. Click here to go to the SCOPAY details page.
Please email cas-enquiries.tcs@cset.co.uk if you need any support with accessing your child’s/children’s account.
As from September 2024 we will introduce biometric technology in the form of facial recognition software.
Due to the increase in the number of additional students using the canteen (with the movement of our Post-16 unit to the main site in September) this will allow us increased speed in processing food purchases. It will also increase security and significantly reduce any fraudulent use of existing lunch cards.
