St. Agnes Primary School Kitchen has a food hygiene rating of 5 - Very Good. You can view the outcome of the inspection here - ​https://ratings.food.gov.uk/business/40913 
School Meals
Our school meals are prepared  by the Tower Hamlets Children, Schools and Families Contract Services, a non-profit organisation which operates within Tower Hamlets Council.  The school promotes healthy eating.
 
Tower Hamlets Catering runs a two-week rolling menu, which changes every six months.  Click the link above to view the current menu.
Lunch themes and celebrating cultures
Each day, our school lunches follow a theme such as “Planet Earth Day” which is our meat free day or ‘Traditional’, which is dedicated to British classics such as the roast dinner - by far and away the children’s favourite.
We also celebrate other global cultures and cuisines ranging from African to Italian and Japanese to American.​
Packed Lunch
Children may bring their own packed lunches into school.  We prefer that home-made packed lunches include a sandwich and some fruit.  We ask that they do not include drinks (we provide water, as a water only school) or biscuits, cake, chocolate or sweets.  Children should have a healthy packed lunch in line with our healthy school policy.
Universal Free School Meals
The Government runs a national scheme to provide school meals to children whose parents/carers are financially eligible to receive them.
Tower Hamlets Council also provides Free School Meals to some children.

Pupils Attending Infant School (Reception, Year 1, Year 2)
There is a national system to provide universal free schools meals regardless of the parent’s or carer’s income. If your child is in Reception, Year 1 or Year 2, you do not have to pay for their school lunch.
Pupils Attending Junior School (Years 3-6)
Tower Hamlets Council has extended universal free school meals provision to include all children of residents of the borough who attend a primary school in the borough. If you live in Tower Hamlets and your child is in Year 3, Year 4, Year 5 or Year 6 you do not have to pay for their school lunch. 

You may be eligible for free school meals, because of your income. If this is the case the school receive top up funding and you as a parent may be entitled to receive food vouchers when applicable. 
Do you claim any of the following:
  • Income Support
  • Income-based Jobseeker’s Allowance
  • Income-related Employment and Support Allowance
  • Support under Part VI of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999
  • The guaranteed element of Pension Credit
  • Child Tax Credit (provided you’re not also entitled to Working Tax Credit and have an annual
    gross income of no more than £16,190)
  • Working Tax Credit run-on - paid for 4 weeks after you stop qualifying for Working Tax Credit
  • Universal Credit - if you apply on or after 1 April 2018 your household income must be
    less than £7,400 a year (after tax and not including any benefits you get)

You can check whether you are eligible to receive Free School Meals here.
You will then be asked to create an account with LGfL to use the eligibility checker.
