Education Working Groups

The British Nutrition Foundation has four Education Working Groups around the UK that formally meet on an annual basis. The Groups comprise practising teachers, awarding organisation representatives, initial teacher education personnel/trainers and government officials. The role of the Groups is to critically appraise education plans and activities, highlight changes, challenges and opportunities in teaching pedagogy and classroom practice, and discuss needs for professional development.
