Implementing the PhunkyFoods programme
The PhunkyFoods programme is completely flexible for use in schools and as such may be delivered as a full or part PPA solution, within the taught curriculum through subjects such as science, D&T and PSHE. PhunkyFoods can also be delivered during breakfast, lunch or after school clubs in the form of the Phunky Club curriculum.
PPA time
As of September 2005 all primary schools in the UK had to implement the 10% statutory PPA time. This time is set aside for primary school teachers as non contact time with the children for planning, preparation and assessment. The statutory PPA time equates to around 2 hours per week and this is a perfect opportunity for schools to implement PhunkyFoods. Teachers are freed from the classroom to carry out their PPA during these two hours because the programme has been designed to be delivered by classroom / teaching assistants.
