Information on the number of pupils eligible for and claiming free schools meals in each local authority in London for January 2010 to 2015 is published in the “Statistics: schools and pupil numbers” series[1]. This is based on the January School census.

A collated version of this information has been provided in the attached Excel spreadsheet.
