Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, which schools in Fylde constituency will begin offering free breakfast clubs from September 2026.

More than 1,400 schools will join the free breakfast club programme from September, offering a free breakfast club to all pupils from Reception to Year 6. This brings the total number of schools on the programme to more than 2,700 from September and includes two schools in Fylde: Westminster Primary Academy and The Maple School.

For this first year of national rollout, places on the free breakfast club programme were offered to schools with primary provision who have higher levels of disadvantage, and to schools on the food-only National School Breakfast Programme. All schools who were invited to apply for the programme have been offered a place. You can see the full list of more than 2,700 schools on the programme on GOV.UK: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/breakfast-clubs-early-adopters-schools-in-the-scheme.

New groups of schools will be onboarded in stages throughout 2027 and 2028 to ensure we can continue to provide appropriate support to ensure successful delivery.
