The roadmaps are a visual guide to food and nutrition education from 3-16 years and are a way of representing what pupils should learn, and the sequence.
The main purpose for the roadmaps is to:
- help schools audit their current food curriculum and plan their future food curriculum as part of a whole school approach.
- help schools and teachers demonstrate intent and how topics link throughout the age phases (supporting the '3 Is' in the 2019 Ofsted Framework).
- show pupils their food learning journey.
- provide a visual representation of the structure of the Food – a fact of life education programme, found at www.foodafactoflife.org.uk
- support the recommendations and proposals of UK government food strategies.
Roadmaps are available in both interactive and print versions. The interactive versions contain links to relevant areas on the ‘Food - a Fact of Life’ education website for schools. There are roadmaps for healthy eating, cooking, and where food comes from.
