You can adapt the resources to meet individual learning needs and the delivery of various course programmes. There has been no assessment on how the resources align to the current colleges' curriculum or qualifications. 

Materials for students include:

  • resource activities
  • handouts
  • activities to check learning
  • lesson plans

Materials for teachers and lecturers include:

  • PowerPoint presentations
  • tracking/audit forms
  • case study of how Northampton College implemented SFBB within its catering facilities (last reviewed and published 2009)

These resources can be used:

  • for specific SFBB training
  • as part of food safety training
  • integrated into practical sessions
  • for cover lessons or as an extension activity

You can download other SFBB packs from our site.

Virtual learning environments

A virtual learning environment (VLE) is an excellent way to give students access to the different resources they need. VLEs can also track use of resources or mark quizzes.

Your college may have a VLE you can use. Or, alternatively, there are some systems available online that are free to use.

Reward schemes

Colleges can put in place a reward scheme related to the implementation of SFBB. Schemes can be developed to:

  • promote food safety compliance across all learning programmes
  • maintain a high profile for SFBB throughout the academic year
  • reward groups/teams of learners who comply with food safety standards
  • promote teamwork and group cohesion

Any reward scheme will be unique to each college and its learners. See the Northampton College case study for an example of such a scheme.
