Expand free school meals provision to cover all school children

Petition Details

I would like the Government to expand free school meals to cover all school children up until the end of sixth form.

Additional Information

The cost of living crisis can be addressed by giving free school meals to all children. Families will save at least £250 per child every year and could help alleviate the cost of living crisis. It would give families more disposable income.
