Advanced Certificate of Professional Development in Food Education

Description

This programme is a collaboration with Leiths School of Food and Wine. Leiths, along with the Food Teachers Centre (who are the subject association for Cooking in schools), are greatly concerned with the lack of teacher training for cooking in Schools. The UK government recognised the problem in its Government Food Strategy (June 2022) where it pledged to upskill teachers. That plan was quietly dropped and there are real issues with food skills in Schools. This programme is part of a suite of three products, all linked: · A PGCE in Food and Nutrition, launching in 5 locations nationally in September 2025 

 This Level 7 Advanced Certificate of Professional Development in Food Education ·

 Individual CPD days At the heart of this project are 10 practical subject teaching days, each covering a different aspect of teaching Food in schools. These can be purchased individually or as a set of 10, which is this Level 7 certificate.
