Food Technology Teacher Interview

We filmed an interview with a food tech teacher and asked them about the health of the food they cook and what the cooking skills are like of the children in the school.

We also got footage for cut-aways of children cooking things in school and making various foods which can be used between questions on the interview.

1. Why do you think young people are choosing to make sandwiches instead of cooking a meal?

2. Do you think that sandwiches are a healthier option for lunch and why?

3. What are people's cooking skills like when they come to this school?

4. Tell me about the sandwich project you teach n year 7.

5. Why do you teach it?

6.Whats your percect lunch and why?

7. Do you think pupils should be taught healthy cooking from an earlier age and why?

8. Whats your favourite sandwich?


Overall the interview went well apart from we had to stop filming a couple of times when students walked in.

Dinner Lady interview

We interviewed a dinner lady and asked her about how school meals had changed and in what ways they were/weren't healthy for children.

We filmed the interview in the dinner hall were the children eat their lunch with the other dinner ladies preparing the food in the background.

We also took the opportunity to film cut-aways to use in between the questions. We used shots of the children buying lunch and some of them eating.

1. School dinners have had alot of criticism over the years, why do you think this is?

2. How have school dinners changed over the years?

3. Tell me about the guidelines you have to follow when preparing school dinners.

4. What do you consider to be the perfect lunch and why?

5. What do students prefer to buy, hot meals or sandwiches and why do you thnk they are popular?

6. Do you think sandwiches are healthy? Explain.

7. What do you think are more healthy, school meals or packed lunches and why?

8. What do you do to attract students to healthier options?

9. What is your favourite sandwich?


This was successful on the whole and we are able to use the majority of the answers.
