Food safety
New resource.
The Department for Education have developed a new food safety resource which includes evidence based guidance and lots of resources on the following:
- The importance of food safety;
- Food safety advice for children age 5 and under;
- Age related food and drinks to avoid;
- Safe weaning advice;
- Allergy information and useful resources, and
- Food and food preparation hygiene.
The EYFS Framework requires providers to take all of the necessary steps to keep children safe and well - You must be confident that those responsible for preparing and handling food in your setting are competent to do so.
