26SUM18 Cookery Fundays in School

This summer course is a hands-on course that will introduce you to simple, tasty recipes that you can do with a mainstream class, SET group or after-school club.

Teachers will develop technical culinary skills while simultaneously learning how to structure, manage, and adapt cookery lessons for the classroom.

The benefits of cooking in school are widespread and far reaching, including enhancing wellbeing and encouraging healthy eating. Cookery Fundays supports the new Primary Language Curriculum and Maths Curriculum and can be used to develop Science skills.

The benefits of baking for students with additional and complex needs have been highlighted by the NCSE.  Cooking encourages and enables children's communication and interactions with others.

Please note that 2026 July summer course dates run from Wednesday July 1st.
