Who is eligible?
You can get free school meals for your child if you or your partner gets either:- Pension Credit Guarantee Credit (the 'guarantee credit element')
- Income Support
- Income-based Jobseeker's Allowance
- Child Tax Credit (but not Working Tax Credit) and have a family income below £14,155, as assessed by HM Revenue & Customs

So yes, you should be able to get free school meals as long as your income (not including student loans and bursaries) doesnt go above £14155.
Obviously if you are working 16+ hours as well as being a student (which I assume you are not) you should claim WTC.0 -
