Catering

The school works in partnership with Innovate Catering to provide wholesome, nutritious, healthy and enjoyable meals at a reasonable price.  There is a wide variety on offer each week, which both our students and staff enjoy.

Innovate

Innovate by name and nature. Food choice, flexibility, quality and speed are at the heart of what we do. Inspired by the best and most fashionable high street concepts, we pride ourselves on fusing fantastic quality food with quick service.

Everything has to start with fantastic quality and responsible food. Across our wide, diverse and ever-changing menus, we ensure that every single morsel is safe, sustainable and tastes great. We only source from farmers, wholesalers and catering butchers that are audited to UKAS accredited standards and meet the highest possible assurance levels.

We use our ears and listen to students, understanding what they want and then reflecting their desires on our menus, in our environments and through our initiatives. Working with Wolverley CE Secondary School in this way embeds us as a valued part of your community.

In addition to great food in great environments, we are committed to becoming an ‘Impact Organisation’ and doing whatever we can to create a better world. Our vision and values are entirely aligned to working with our schools to create a positive food culture and a commitment to brilliant food, genuine partnership, and impassioned service.

Additional Catering Information

Free School Meals

We want to ensure that all of our students have access to a healthy nutritious meal, all items are clearly priced to allow students to select any items up to the daily allowance. The allowance will cover a hot main meal, hot wrap, baguette or other nutritious snack plus either a hot pudding, fruit pot or freshly-made cake, and can only be taken during the lunch break. If students would like any food or drinks during breakfast or break time these can be purchased using funds from their Arbor account.

Students can also choose to switch the pudding for a drink, if they’d prefer.

Please see below information regarding changes to applications for Free School Meals from September 2026:
