College Dinners
Cashless Catering via Connect by ParentApps
At Market Field College, we operate a cashless catering system through Connect by ParentApps, meaning students do not need to bring money into college to purchase their lunch. Payments can be made quickly and securely through the app. Parents and carers who are unable to access the app can request a payment voucher from the college office.
Free School Meals
Some students may be eligible for Free School Meals (FSM), which provides a free meal each day while attending college. Eligibility is based on certain benefits and household circumstances.
Parents and carers can check eligibility and apply online via the Essex County Council Free School Meals portal:
If you require support with an application, please contact us.
Our Menu
Our menu operates on a three-week cycle, providing choice and variety throughout the term.
The current three-week menu can be viewed below and is regularly updated.
If your young person has any dietary requirements, allergies, or food intolerances, please contact us so that we can support their needs and make appropriate arrangements.
