Industrial placements
13 teachers from Middle and High schools in Northumberland have been involved in teacher placements focusing on food manufacture.  The placements were funded opportunities which provided for preparation and research time as well as the industrial visit itself.  The aim is to share the knowledge gained in order to produce a range of resources that can be shared countywide.

Some excellent resources produced as PowerPoint presentations are available here to download.
