Who we work with

We actively work with and support many organisations across the agri-food sector, all of whom are dedicated to improving children’s understanding of the importance of food and farming.

We partner with the British Nutrition Foundation to support food education in the UK and deliver the Food – a fact of life programme. The programme aims to ensure that young people are better informed about where food comes from, healthy eating and cooking.

We work with LEAF Education to help farmers and educators bring farming into a learning context and embed an appreciation of farming into everyday life. This includes the school farm visits support programme, on-farm conferences, A-level resources and CEVAS (Countryside Educational Visits Accreditation Scheme) which is a nationally recognised training programme to provide education visits on-farm.

NFU Education provides high quality primary STEM teaching resources and projects that are closely linked to the National Curriculum. These include Farmvention competition, Farming STEMterprise, and farmers available to speak at schools.

We are a proud sponsor of Ladies in Pigs (LIP), an organisation that promotes and educates people about British Red Tractor approved pork and its associated products. It is linked to curriculum aims and caters for all ages of learning.

The Royal Highland Education Trust (RHET) works with volunteers across Scotland to provide free educational activities and experiential learning opportunities, bringing farming and the working countryside and its practices to life for young people. This includes access to its Resource Portal linked to the Curriculum of Excellence and the RHET Discovery Centre at the Royal Highland Show.

We partner with Countryside Classroom to provide teachers and educators with an online platform to find resources, places to visit and school support relating to food, farming and the natural environment.
