Resources

These pages are a mixture of our own resources, and those we have found from other people and organisations. Some resources here have been provided by practitioners and parents who have tried and tested them, but you will have to assess for yourself the benefits for your own children and whether it will meet the guidelines you are working with.

Some resources are created by food industries. While they are not allowed to promote intentionally inaccurate information, they will naturally wish to promote their product as the most important part of the diet. However some of the resources they provide are very good when used in context. Wherever I am aware that a resource is industry sponsored I will say so, and you can exercise your common sense in evaluating it.

This is a recipe pack, which aims to show young people how to cook tasty and healthy meals, either at school or at home. Each recipe uses simple ingredients and equipment and meets healthy-eating guidelines.
Although it has been designed for 11 year olds learning how to cook solo, lots of the recipes are very suitable for cooking with younger children with more adult help. And they are all checked against nutritional standards, so you have peace of mind on the health issue. They are all good for serving to children.
The pack has been produced by the Department for Children, Schools and Families, together with the British Nutrition Foundation, the Design and Technology Association, the School Food Trust and the Specialist Schools and Academies Trust.
 
Recipes in the pack can also be downloaded individually - here are the direct links:
