Guidelines for producers and users of school education resources about food
The document below sets out a series of voluntary guidelines which can be adopted as part of a good practice approach by those that produce and use education resources for schools about food throughout the UK. It is hoped that they will be used to further support the work of food education in schools, ensuring that children and young people use up-to-date, evidence-based and high-quality resources to support their learning about food. An example of how the guidelines have been adopted by external parties is presented in the case studies below.
This work has initiated by the British Nutrition Foundation and the Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board. Careful consideration has been given to the curricula and qualifications in England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales, and the Guidelines are based on the UK governments Core Competences for children and young people aged 5 to 16 years.
