If the school governors ask about the value of a Cooking Bus visit, what advantages could I point out?

Practical work with food, its preparation and eating provides children with a range of cultural experiences, knowledge and skills that add to and build on their own experiences. Work on food can also be linked to aspects of other subjects in school. In addition to health and nutrition and cross-curricular links with a range of subjects, there are opportunities to develop a number of key skills such as communication, working with others and solving problems. Critical awareness, building confidence, and an understanding of business, industry and a range of cultures and lifestyles will also be encouraged.
