UC and free school meals.

Options
If I get UC and my child goes to a school in a different council area. 
Can I still claim for the free school meals?

I'm autistic, and if I offend anybody by what I've said, or how I've said it.
I'm truly and honestly sorry. It's not my intention or mean to do.

    If you qualify for free school meals it doesn't matter where your child goes to school. 
     I assume your council, who you apply to, pass the money over to the other council/school.
