Nutrition School

This is one of two presentations in November (One for cardiovascular health and the other for children’s healthy eating)

Diet for Heart Health.

This is a one-hour presentation, with live Q&A by a professional nutritionist.

• Capacity for 100 teachers and their classes to join us live from the classroom (Students can only join through their teacher)
• Recorded so that ANY class can catch up at any time, reaching 30,000 students

NB: If demand exceeds 100, we will arrange for this to be broadcast through an additional platform such as You Tube so that as many as possible can join us.

We hope that this helps Y11 by:

• Giving them the opportunity for more engaging primary and secondary research,
• Providing accessible, relevant, and up to date information,
• Clarifying and exploring cardiovascular health issues to bring assessment to life
• Encouraging them to apply what they find out to the choice of appropriate dishes, thus improving their marks.

We encourage your students to prepare questions in advance, and submit them to us, as there will be a substantial Q&A section.

Agenda

1. What is a Nutritionist? (5 mins)
2. Diets for Heart Health (15 mins)
3. Q&A (30 mins)
4. Summing up – important areas to consider (5 mins)

Other great features

Whilst this presentation is aimed at Y11 students, we are happy for Y10, or other exam courses such as Health and Social Care, Y12-13 Food Science and Nutrition to join as well (if there is capacity) or make use of the recording.

You can also use this video to support options evenings. It will bring to life the work on professional nutritionists and showcase many interesting career opportunities and pathways available.

This event has been made possible by kind donations from the Food Teachers Centre group, but we welcome further donations so that we can host more events such as these.
