FSM and continuously make efforts to extent entitlement to children of low income working
families, which may reduce their stigma.

ones, receive free school meals, where England has spent near about £500 million annually.
But still around 70,000 children are left from this FSM. So, Government of UK needs to
concern more on extending this entitlement and provide all children of poor families, proper
mid-day meals.
