Food Safety Challenge

Information for teachers

Thanks for your interest in our Food Safety Challenge.

We are researchers from the University of Manchester investigating children’s understanding of how to store, handle and cook food correctly, as well as keeping hands clean.

We are doing this in many schools and we will be looking at differences in food safety awareness of children of different ages, from different schools and at different stages of the curriculum.
