Pupils needing extra support: May need supervision when using sharp utensils to prepare food and using hot pans and ovens. May benefit from working in pairs to draft the storyboard for the ‘Farm to Fork’ activities.

Pupils working at greater depth: Should explain why certain flavour combinations work. Will be able to concisely present the ‘Farm to Fork’ activity through pictures and captions. Will know what additional tips to add to their recipe and use language similar to that found in cookbooks.
