Burton Borough
Catering and school meals
We operate a biometric purchasing system
Since the refurbishment of our catering facilities in March 2024, we are incredibly proud of the modern bistro‑style experience now available to our students. The Bistro provides a varied selection of main meals, meal deals, and convenient handheld snacks for both pupils and staff.
During morning break, students can enjoy a range of nutritious snack options. At lunchtime, a full roast dinner with pudding is available for just £2.60. Fridays feature our popular Catch of the Day, along with a firm student favourite: curly fries.
To ensure smooth service and accessibility for all, lunchtime is staggered between key stages, enabling an efficient flow through the canteen.
Allergens and dietary needs are always a priority. Families are welcome to contact our catering team with any questions at kitchen.bbs@lct.education.
Burton Borough operates a cashless catering system via Scopay. We use a biometric system for quick and secure payments; however, cards can be issued if needed. The first card is provided free of charge, with a small fee applied for any replacements
