The organisers of British Food Fortnight have updated their schools resources for 2007.

• ‘Putting the Ooo back into food: A Resource Pack for Schools’ - This pack is designed for those who want to teach young people about food, but do not know where to begin. It contains lessons and activities for each curriculum subject with details of where to obtain the resources to support them; in-season recipes; plus contacts of organisations that can offer activity-based support and learning facilities to help you.

• ‘Putting the Ooo back into food: A Guide to including Cookery within the National Curriculum’ - The organisers of British Food Fortnight have worked with experts in education and culinary fields to produce a guide to incorporating cookery within the national curriculum. The guide gives practical advice on how to organise cookery activities for young people. It also contains examples from schools that have successfully incorporated cookery within their curriculum teaching; ideas for cookery lessons for early years, primary and secondary children and contacts of organisations that can help you by providing chefs who can visit your school to give cooking demonstrations and assist with lessons.
