Biometric School Lunch System Print E-mail
CFGS has introduced a system that takes a reading from students' fingers to replace the old card system, preventing problems of students forgetting or losing their lunch cards. 

In the past, students have been given a card, thus enabling them to purchase food from the school's canteen or top up their accounts. This method addressed previous problems, by removing money from the classroom and taking away the stigma attached to free school meals.

By introducing the biometric system, this removes the emphasis on pupils having to remember their cards or Pin numbers and alleviates the chance of identity fraud. This also improves the speed of service in the canteen.

Students no longer have to search for swipe cards and therefore hold up the queue. Students, Parents and Staff can rest assured that the fingerprint images can not be used by other source for identification purposes.
