<p>The number of applications per local authority for additional capital funding for
universal infant free school meals (UIFSM) implementation, along with the total value
of funding requested by each local authority is presented in the table below. The
value of funding requested has been withheld for Havering, Sandwell and Slough. These
local authorities each made a single application which was successful. Including these
amounts would identify the specific amounts of funding allocated to individual schools
and jeopardise their ability to obtain value for money in negotiations with suppliers.
The Department for Education will publish the specific amounts of funding for successful
applications in July 2015.</p><p> </p><p>This funding is in addition to the £150 million
UIFSM capital funding which local authorities have already received. Local authorities
have also received £1.2 billion in general capital funding for maintenance and improvement
this year. They can decide whether they should top up the UIFSM allocation from their
general maintenance and improvement budgets, in the light of local circumstances.
The Department has also invested £9.6 million in a national support service, run by
school food experts from the Children’s Food Trust and the Lead Association for Catering
in Education, which provides advice and support to schools that need help to deliver
UIFSM. The support service continues to be available until the end of this calendar
year to help any schools which are experiencing specific difficulties with delivery.</p><p>
