Resolving the errors

To resolve them, go to School > Data > Export > Data Returns and select your census. Make sure you have regenerated your census, and go to Meals from the left-hand menu.

Top Tip: Schools without primary-age students (secondaries) won't see this menu item and don't need to complete this.

The DfE wants to know which Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 students have taken their Universal Free School Meal Entitlement. Click here for further details from the DfE. 

  • If the lunchtime situation on census day is abnormal, please see the DfE’s Unusual circumstance guidance.
  • Be sure to set any students who are absent or who have chosen to have a packed lunch as No.

We recommend inputting this section manually. This will not affect the meals registers elsewhere in Arbor. Do not use the Auto-set School Lunch Taken button.

To manually set the statuses, click the boxes next to the students who have taken a UFSM school lunch on census day. Then click the Bulk action button to set them as Set as School Lunch taken

Then return to the Census Meals page by clicking Meals from the left-hand menu.

Click the boxes next to the students who have not taken a UFSM school lunch on census day. Then click the Bulk action button to set them as School Lunch NOT taken.

I still have errors

Make sure to regenerate your census.

If you've completed the Meals section on the left-hand side of your census and are still getting queries 1877Q (checking that the number of meals taken should be above 95%), 3080Q, 3085Q or 3090Q you can submit your census.

Be sure to add a note when submitting to explain the numbers.
