Food plays an important role in supporting pupils’ health, wellbeing and success at school.
Catering at King Edward’s School is provided in partnership with Thomas Franks, combining high-quality ingredients, nutritious menus and expert dietary support to ensure pupils enjoy healthy, balanced meals throughout the day.
From breakfast before lessons to lunch with friends in the Dining Hall, pupils can choose from a wide variety of freshly prepared hot and cold options designed to suit a range of tastes, appetites and dietary requirements
Freshly prepared food every day
Our catering team prepares a broad selection of meals each day, offering pupils plenty of choice while encouraging healthy eating habits.
Breakfast options range from cereals, toast and fruit to freshly cooked hot breakfasts, helping pupils start the day well. At lunchtime, pupils can enjoy a selection of hot main courses, fresh vegetables, salads, soups, desserts and grab-and-go options, all served in a welcoming dining environment.
