Information for Teachers
We all understand the importance of a healthy balanced diet and why Scottish schools have such a key role to play.
To help you get the message over in the school environment, whether in the classroom or in the school canteen, we have produced this range of booklets and posters especially for teachers, school caterers and their pupils.
This range of free material highlights the versatility of meat and how to combine it with other nutrients to make quick and easy dishes that taste good, look good and are good for you too! Remember – Eating healthily can be cheap and simple – and definitely NOT boring.

Cookery demonstrations in schools – Primary, and Secondary Schools in Scotland
QMS began a programme of cookery demonstrations in March 2006.
Our experienced Chefs create an ideal opportunity to learn about the versatility, convenience and cost effectiveness of red meat and its place as part of a healthy balanced diet in a practical, "fun" and interactive way.
Through the QMS demonstrations pupils are given an insight into the importance of eating a balanced diet including protein and iron rich foods such as red meat and the benefits of cooking and eating fresh natural produce. This is illustrated to great effect by including fresh fruit, vegetables and herbs into each of the dishes cooked.
Control over the use of salt and sugar is emphasised and the fun and social aspects of cooking are highlighted. Each demonstration is tailored to meet the needs and requirements of the School and is introduced with nutritional information on the importance of a healthy balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.
In some cases there is the opportunity to have practical cookery sessions for participants, and at each of the Demonstrations there is the opportunity to taste each of the dishes cooked.
In Primary Schools a Healthy Eating Workshop is also on offer, including lots of fun games and information on where our meat comes from and the importance of a healthy balanced diet.
