A pupil's Free School Meal status should update automatically during the Academic Year End Process.
If you haven't yet completed this process, you can download the guide here Academic Year End Guide
Ensure your MIS is updated with the same data to avoid any changes being overwritten during a future import.
If you have completed the Academic Year End Process and there is still a problem, carry out the following:

FSM - A pupil is no longer entitled to FSM but they are still displaying as blue in Dinners - why is this?
