W: According to experts, nearly 25% of Britons, including children, are overweight. The government is worried and it is looking for ways to settle the problem. Many 11-14-year-olds already do cookery at school but from 2011, the government is making this a must. They hope that this will encourage people to cook instead of eating ready meals, fast food and snacks. All secondary school students will have cooking lessons for one hour a week for one term. They will learn to use simple, fresh stuff and simple recipes to prepare healthy, tasty meals. And schools are setting up cookery clubs called ‘Let’s Get Cooking’ throughout the country. The clubs will give more children the chance to learn to cook after school. Head teachers worry about the equipment they will need for the lessons. About 15% of schools do not have kitchens and there are not enough cookery teachers. The government promises to train 800 cookery

teachers and to give schools £2.5 million a year to help children from poor families.
