Food for Thought is a national programme and fund managed by Education Scotland which aims to build capacity and confidence to improve learning and teaching within food education.
To date, 61 projects have been funded via the Food for Thought: Education Fund giving practitioners scope to explore food education across Curriculum for Excellence. Participating schools are required to work in partnership with a local business and to connect with national initiatives such as the 2014 Commonwealth Games.
