Description
Jessica Kempler, Claire Margerison, Janandani Nanayakkara, and Alison Booth survey food teaching in Australian primary schools in a 2024 study. Food, nutrition, and sustainability lessons serve both child health and the planet. How much of this teaching truly happens was little known.
Four hundred thirteen teachers answered a mixed online survey. Teachers rated the topic as weighty as most school subjects, yet class time for it stayed low. Under a third had training, funds, or a school policy behind the work. Teaching ran more often where support ran stronger. The authors call for training and policy to close the gap between worth and practice.
