Whilst league table higher exam results pressure forces schools to offer GCSEs over 3 years rather than 2, it does mean that over 90% of pupils in those schools have reduced food and nutrition education. Their KS3 learning is reduced to 2 years and the majority are forced to give up food and nutrition at 12 years old.
Key stage 3:
-understand and apply the principles of nutrition and health
-cook a repertoire of predominantly savoury dishes so that they are able to feed themselves and others a healthy and varied diet
-become competent in a range of cooking techniques [for example, selecting and preparing ingredients; using utensils and electrical equipment; applying heat in different ways; using awareness of taste, texture and smell to decide how to season dishes and combine ingredients; adapting and using their own recipes]
-understand the source, seasonality and characteristics of a broad range of ingredients.

OFSTEDs new inspection handbook that says that where schools run longer GCSE courses inspectors will look to see if pupils still study a broad range of subjects in a shortened KS3. https://www.tes.com/news/investigation-will-ofsted-end-three-year-gcses ... See MoreSee Less

"Consistent access to nutritious food has an immediate and measurable impact on overall health and well-being, reducing health care costs & potentially breaking the cycle of poverty." We're inspired by these words from #HungerFighters at @Gr8BosFoodBank 👉 https://t.co/eaLd3I8cH2 https://t.co/Utpl6akFfx ... See MoreSee Less
