Healthy, Nutritious and Delicious School Meals

We are proud to work in partnership with Chartwells, our catering provider, to offer students a varied, nutritious and enjoyable dining experience every day.

Through their student-focused dining concept, Food Union, Chartwells provides a menu designed specifically for secondary school students, offering a balance of healthy choices, familiar favourites and dishes inspired by student feedback.

Their aim is to create a welcoming dining environment where every meal supports students' wellbeing, concentration and success throughout the school day.

Working closely with students, Chartwells regularly gathers feedback to help shape the menu and ensure the food on offer reflects the preferences and needs of our college community.

Cashless Catering

The college operates a cashless catering system, providing a secure, convenient and efficient way for students to purchase food and drink.

Parents and carers can top up accounts online via Scopay and monitor spending through the cashless catering system.

Medical Diets and Food Allergies

While secondary-aged students are encouraged to develop independence in managing their dietary requirements, we understand that parents and carers may have questions or concerns regarding allergies, intolerances or specialist diets.

For advice and support regarding medical diets, please contact the Chartwells Medical Diet Team directly:

Further information about their approach can be found via the Chartwells Medical Diets guidance.

Even if your child prefers to bring a packed lunch, applying for free school meals may provide access to additional funding and support that benefits both your child and the college.

Supporting Positive Food Choices

At Henry Cort, we believe that healthy eating plays an important role in students' wellbeing, learning and development.

Together with Chartwells, we are committed to encouraging positive attitudes towards food, helping students make informed choices and supporting healthy habits that can last a lifetime.
