July 2017 Universal Infant Free School Meals (UIFSM) grant allocations

Schools 2016-17 Academic Year UIFSM funding allocations and provisional 2017-18 Academic Year UIFSM funding allocations.

On 30 June the Education and Skills Funding Agency (ESFA) notified us of its schools’ final 2016-17 UIFSM funding allocations and provisional UIFSM allocations for the 2017-18 academic year.

In the July 2017 advances we will pay UIFSM allocations to schools, with the payment split as follows:

  1. An adjustment to the provisional payment made in July 2016 for the period September 2016 - March 2017
  2. The payment for the period April to August 2017
  3. A provisional payment for the 2017-18 academic year for the period September 2017 - March 2018

A UIFSM allocations template (XLSX, 204.9 KB) has been provided to assist schools with reconciling their UIFSM allocations with the advances.

UIFSM conditions of grant can be found on the DfE website below:
