Frequently asked questions

We hope our common Food Hygiene and Safety in Education FAQs will help answer any further questions you may have. Just click to expand!

Why is food hygiene important in schools?

Food Hygiene is important in schools because it can affect everyone in the school community. Children are also less likely to practice good hygiene and are more at risk of food-borne illnesses due to having a less developed immune system.

Inadequate knowledge of food hygiene and safety can lead to many diseases and even risk allergic reactions if contamination methods aren't followed correctly.

Ensure your staff are taught the correct knowledge and skills on preparing, storing and eating food with our Food Hygiene and Safety in Education.

Do teachers need a food safety certificate?

Any member of staff that works with food in a school kitchen must legally hold a Food Hygiene and Safety certification.

Teachers and school staff will benefit from food hygiene training, especially if they're teaching cooking lessons.
