Chefs in Schools was created by Nicole Pisani who use to be the head chef at the acclaimed Soho restaurant Nopi. She to take the gamble of a lifetime and became the Head Chef at Gayhurst Primary School in Hackney.
Since arriving at Gayhurst, Nicole retrained the school cooks using the restaurant brigade system. They cook everything from scratch and bake bread daily. She also took charge of the cooking curriculum, teaching the children to butcher whole chickens and cook over fire pits in the playground. This work became the model for Chefs in Schools who have been working with us since autumn 2019.
We believe the best chance children have to understand the importance of a good diet is by eating, and learning how to make, delicious food, cooked from scratch. This combined with Taste Ed which is our food curriculum provides our children with the experience and knowledge to grow, prepare and cook healthy and delicious meals.
You can find out more about Chefs in Schools on their website and in the following attachments.
We review our menus each term with our School Council who are given the opportunity to choose new meals from a list of recipes provided by Chef’s in Schools.
