CATERING SERVICE - welcome taylor shaw

At John Ferneley College, we are proud to offer delicious, nutritious and excellent value school meals provided by our excellent Catering Team. Their professional high standards, cheerful service and delicious food ensure that lunch is a highlight of the day. We provide nutritionally balanced food and offer a varied menu. Meals are prepared using fresh and local ingredients daily. 

The team run a Breakfast Club in the Restaurant every morning from 8.00am - 8.40am, open to all students and staff who arrive early and need a good breakfast! 

In review of our catering offer to students and staff, we have opened a new catering outlet on site for Key Stage 4 students, alongside a new external Catering pod.  

We have two catering outlets of food service at John Ferneley:

  • Key Stage 3 (Years 7, 8 and 9) - Restaurant
  • Key Stage 4 (Years 10 and 11) - Auditorium and external POD

Each outlet is open at mid-morning break and at lunchtime, so make sure you pay a visit at some point throughout the day.

Meal deal options are available throughout the day, offering excellent value. Vegetarian options are also catered for.
