We are looking forward to welcoming families to our Open Evening on Thursday 24th September 2026 from 5.30-7.30pm.
We hope to see you there!
Our catering service at Beckfoot Thornton is provided by Mellors and the catering team pride themselves on providing an excellent well-rounded menu while encapsulating food and cultures from around the world.
We are committed to healthy eating and provide food which not only tastes great, but is also nutritionally balanced, providing your child with the essentials for a healthy diet.


Beckfoot Thornton operates a cashless catering system. The system incorporates the latest technology and eliminates the need for students to carry cash throughout the day. Payment is made via your child’s biometrics at the tills.
Any amount of money can be paid into a student’s account and any money spent on food and drink will be deducted each day. Payments are made online via ParentPay which is the preferred method.
