Food Education 1955

This corny and patronising film was made in 1955 but many of the points raised are valid today. I have worked in food education for 20 years and the debate on whether or not home food skills should be taught within the mainstream curriculum is constantly being discussed and dismissed. The current question mark over compulsory food education for Key stage 3 has again been raised since the change in government.
