Description

Join us for Empowering Food Teachers, our 2025 Food Teachers Centre summer workshop. Just for secondary school food and nutrition teachers and staff who work with them.

We will be focusing on key issues reported by our teachers, but highlighting pragmatic solutions, ideas and tips of how to overcome those problems. From writing your curriculum to managing tight budgets, and from coping with short lessons to managing large class sizes, we focus on the ‘nitty-gritty’, offering quick-win and immediate solutions.

The programme includes:

managing the dreaded 60 minute (or less) lesson

safe and effective teaching of large classes

making your case for technician time

securing an adequate budget for ingredients and equipment

practical approaches for pupils with allergens

fast ways to improve the profile of your subject in school.

Key themes

Food education updates - DfE curriculum review, resources and teachers
