As QES is a Cumbrian school, all parents wishing to apply for Free School Meals, regardless of what county you live in, should make the application through Westmorland & Furness Council.
Your child will get free school meals if you receive any of the following:
If your child is eligible for and has been registered to receive free school meals between 1 April 2018 and the end of the rollout of Universal Credits (currently expected to be March 2024), they will remain eligible until they finish the phase of schooling (primary or secondary) they are in at the end of Universal Credits rollout. This is regardless of any change to your circumstances.

The Pastoral team is here to help and support you navigate through your early teen and teenage years.
We have a friendly, purposeful and mutually respectful atmosphere underpinned by high expectations. Our pupils would expect nothing less. Our Core Values are at the at the heart of all we do; they shape our day to day experiences both in school and in our local communities.
Our team is led by two Assistant Headteachers, Mrs Mooney (KS3) and Mrs Longley (KS4). All staff in school have a responsibility for pastoral care but particularly the Heads of Year, Deputy Heads of Year, Pastoral Support officers and form tutors.
We have high expectations of you in terms of attitude, approach and behaviour, but more importantly we want you to be happy and safe in school. We will work with you, and your parents guiding you through your academic studies and your personal development.
