Many of your Schools will be asking you to prepare for teaching for the new Education Inspection Framework (out for consultation by Ofsted).
What does this mean for food teachers?
The New (Consultation) refers to Three ‘I’s: intent, implementation and impact
- Intent – the extent to which schools demonstrate a rich and varied curriculum, one which is not simply focused on teaching to the tests or achieving good exam results.
- Implementation – that teachers present all aspects of this broad and balanced curriculum (not just English and maths) and are visibly encouraging discussion and the whole-hearted engagement of pupils, without an over-concentration on outcomes and with a far greater emphasis on processes.
- Impact – that learners develop detailed knowledge and skills across the whole curriculum. It follows that there will be a greater emphasis on the behaviour and attitudes of pupils and a much less single-lens approach to data.
This is great news for food teaching that contributes to a wide range of curriculum outcomes including those focused on health and well-being, those focused on national curriculum D&T and those focused on cooking and nutrition:
- with links into humanities subjects with topics such as sustainability and provenance, or global food culture;
- with links to science with food chemistry and properties, microbiology and nutrition, and food technology and future food
- with links to religious studies with food beliefs and choices, with links to history on changes to eating patterns and food availability
–to name just a few.
Instead of reinventing your own curriculum statement about intent we suggest that you base this on the most credible research and international views about why we teach food and its role in the curriculum of all young people.
1. Teaching food is MUCH BIGGER than the national curriculum – globally there is clear agenda from United Nations and the Rights of every Child that you can reference and use as your starting point for why food and nutrition is essential for every child in your school. http://www.fao.org/nutrition/education/en/. Out of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals – Food Education plays a pivotal role in Goal 2 on Hunger, Goal 3 on Good Health, Goal 4 on Education and Goal 6 on Water. Our government is signed up to this agenda.
2. How do we describe our aims? Draw upon key documents to explain the purpose and aims and adapt these for the specific focus of your school. We suggest that you use:
a. National Curriculum Purpose of Study section and Cooking and Nutrition Section Here
b. GCSE aims set out by DfE Here
c. School Food Plan Chap 2 Cooking in the Curriculum Here
3. We also suggest that you look at Public Health Local Authority – Health and Well Being programmes – with growing rates on obesity Food Education is often part of the regional plan that your school should be involved in. If this is not in your plan currently – seek to build it in, as this will strengthen your subject in the schools. Some examples of local provision that you can draw upon are included here (even if you are not in those areas, we suggest these are great resources).
The statement made in the GCSE captures many aspects of what schools should be setting out as their intent:
Food and Nutrition in our school will equip students with the knowledge, understanding and skills required to cook and apply the principles of food science, nutrition and healthy eating. Our curriculum will encourage students to cook and enable them to make informed decisions about a wide range of further learning opportunities and career pathways as well as develop vital life skills that enable them to feed themselves and others affordably and nutritiously, now and later in life.
Through food and nutrition, students will
- Demonstrate effective and safe cooking skills by planning, preparing and cooking using a variety of food commodities, cooking techniques and equipment
- develop knowledge and understanding of the functional properties and chemical processes as well as the nutritional content of food and drinks
- understand the relationship between diet, nutrition and health, including the physiological and psychological effects of poor diet and health
- understand the economic, environmental, ethical, and socio-cultural influences on food availability, production processes, and diet and health choices
- demonstrate knowledge and understanding of functional and nutritional properties, sensory qualities and microbiological food safety considerations when preparing, processing, storing, cooking and serving food
- understand and explore a range of ingredients and processes from different culinary traditions (traditional British and international), to inspire new ideas or modify existing recipes

Announcing the Winners of the Tunnock’s Teacake Challenge
|
The new GCSE and vocational courses require students to use good presentation skills and they need to practice these for their exams. The original idea for the task was a call out to many teachers for their students to take part in a challenge which was fun and a great way of presenting these skills for the exams, covering a serious side to the syllabus. This idea was the brainchild of Deborah Prigg from Westfield Academy in Yeovil, who had used the it to inspire her own students and having shared it in the group, it gained momentum very quickly. Fergus and Karen Loudon from Tunnock’s (the teacake originators), came along to our Food Boost Face to Face event in November and kindly offered to sponsor a challenge for all schools having followed the developing interest by schools. A Tunnock’s Teacake Challenge entry group was set up on the Facebook platform and managed by Associate Suzanne Gray to facilitate the competition.
The brief was to produce a plate with a focus on the presentation of a Tunnock’s Teacake looking for the most stunning plate created. Marks were given for creativity; presentation; skills and adding balance to the plate.
Every member of the Food Teachers Centre had the opportunity to enter one student from any year from their school only, many making it a school challenge to raise funds for a charity event or their own classroom!
Judging was completed by the members of the Food Teachers Centre and a list of finalists was drawn up. Fergus Loudon Director of Sales at Tunnock’s, Deborah Prigg and Food Teachers Centre Associates had a really tough job to award prizes as there were so many fabulous entries. |
Lucky Winners!
We are now delighted to be able to announce the winners of the 2018/19 Tunnock’s Teacake Challenge. Every entrant and school received a certificate of entry. The winners received special certificates and their prizes, kindly donated by Tunnock’s.

Announcing our new On-Line training rooms – SPECIAL DISCOUNTS for early adopters!
|
We know that not all teachers can get the release, budget or time to get out of school for face to face training. We have been working hard as a team of volunteers over the past few months to research ways that we can bring you training on-line. We have had ‘Digital Tickets’ in the past – recording all the presentations and giving you the handouts so that you don’t miss out. But we know that this is not the same as coming to a training day and Dropbox is not the easiest way to access trainihng materials.
So PLEASE COME AND EXPLORE OUR NEW TRAINING ROOM for NEA Preparation, Marking and Revision for the written paper. It is only £20 More information here
Here are some of the reviews so far!
Ah summer term … finalising the NEAs to send off to the moderators, exam revision season in full swing! I have just had a really good look through the resources in the on-line training room. I have found some really useful resources – including presentations from Jaquie on things to check when marking the NEAs and the evidence which the moderators want to have clearly marked. There are also other resources really useful and will make revision a little more interesting – from time to time – for the teacher and student alike. If you haven’t been to any of the NEA – Together events, then this could be a really good option for you. It’s pretty budget friendly at £20 as well
Ben Taylor
Wonderful resources – the best CPD I have had in 13 years of teaching.
When accessing the training resources a real focus for me was the revision section. I loved watching the high quality videos and the recommendations, tips and strategies on offer were fantastic. My only problem was scribbling all the info down as the presenter of the video went through it.
It is the first time that anyone has ever deconstructed the act of revision and actually shared an effective way of doing it. It was a total revelation to me – as were some of the very high tech methods of learning and assessing ie the VR code testing.
I actually have 120 minute revision session tomorrow and although I had a ‘good’ range of revision materials from the last couple of years, my first port of call when planning were the notes that I made while completing the Food Teachers training.
From a general food teaching point of view one of the seriously amazing strengths of this training are the food science videos both the links & recommendations and the in house videos explaining key concepts.
So would I recommend the training? Yes
Does it represent good value? Yes
Does it provide easy to follow practical advice on how to do a good job at delivering, assessing & teaching of GCSE F P & N? Yes
Will I be returning to the bits that I haven’t yet completed? Yes
Will I be purchasing future training access? Yes
Emma Fenn
I’ve used the NEA Training and Revision videos over Easter to help with marking and preparing for next term. They have been very helpful to someone who couldn’t get to the training. I particularly like the range of revision ideas. I plan to use these with my class in the remaining few weeks before their exam. It is really useful information, especially if it’s your first time running one of the GCSE courses.
Louise Glover
I have been using the closed group [new training room], full of training videos for the last week or so. I have found it really useful as I struggle to get out to training events and there is only me teaching Food in my school, so I don’t really have anyone to bounce ideas off or speak to for advice.
The closed group has a wealth of different videos, specifically to help NEA 1 and 2, plus exam preparation. There is also a lot of detailed videos to help with the the scientific principles of the specification, which is perfect for those who aren’t as confident in teaching them.
I have been using the group on my mobile mostly and it is easy to navigate and all videos can be viewed on this platform.
I fully recommend it and I will continue to explore when the current exam season settles down and I am preparing for the next academic year.

Chefs Back to School – FREE networking meetings and practical skills training |
‘Chefs Back to School’ is a day where student chefs revisit their secondary school to give a demonstration. We provide the briefing video to explain it to student chefs, we partner them up with their old schools (or new ones) and we connect college with all local teachers. We have chosen student chefs rather than tutors to visit schools. Our research shows that it is increasingly difficult for tutors to find the time within their busy schedules to carry out meaningful outreach work. Using student chefs is a more sustainable model, it is easily scalable nationwide and school pupils will be able to identify with student chefs who are closer to their own age group.
We partner schools and colleges up so that ex- students to visit their old school to:
• Show headteachers that food is a valuable exam route with many career opportunities
• Help teachers give better and accurate careers advice
• Enthuse young people about the possibilities of your courses and their career
Teacher meetings across the country
We also invite you attend an open evening near you to find out more about the college, the courses that they run, their offer to host pupil visits or to support you by coming to your school to demonstrate key skills during lessons or open evenings, to support options nights by meeting with parents. AND ALSO we have included higher level skills practical training on these nights. Each meeting has its own flavor so click on the links and get more information and book.
