Differentiation
Pupils needing extra support: Will need to work in mixed ability groups to get support from their peers and be closely supervised in the kitchen to ensure they are kept safe and use equipment safely.
Pupils working at greater depth: Encourage these children to design product packaging specifically for attracting their target audience. For example, a sauce for a family with children might be brightly coloured with cartoon vegetables. Whereas a sauce aimed at professional couples might use italicised writing and promote the quality of the ingredients.
