For Teachers
Cooking is on the curriculum! But where do you start with the practical delivery of cooking lessons? Understanding how to make best use of time and resources, practical health and safety and logistics of planning and delivery all pose difficulties for teachers. Cooking in the Classroom is an innovative professional development workshop that offers a committed approach to embedding healthy & delicious cookery lessons into your school curriculum.
The workshop can be delivered over a full inset day or two x 2.5hr twilight sessions and will give your teachers the tools to delivery cookery workshops in school.
