This learning area, which is one of the four created to support pupils develop skills for independent living, supports teaching and learning around cooking, including food hygiene and safety.
There are a number of steps for pupils to follow when developing skills to prepare and cook drinks, snacks and meals independently or with support. This area looks at practical food skills, the key steps to make a drink, snack or meal, and how to stay safe in the kitchen.
To support learning, the following is available:
- a teachers' guide, with activity ideas;
- stimulus materials and worksheets.
These resources, to support the development of skills for independent living, meet the Guidelines for producers and users of school education resources about food.
