teenagers will receive cooking lessons in schools. the idea is to encourage healthy eating to solve the problem that many people are overweight. also, it worries people that basic cooking and food preparation skills are being lost because parents use too much pre-prepared fast food.cooking was once regarded as an important part of education in england-even if it was mainly for girls. in recent years cooking has become less important in schools. but the rising level of obesity has led to rethink about the food that children are given and the skills they should be taught.“what we want is to teach young people how to do basic, simple meals, which they can use now at home and then in their life,” said ed balls, an education expert.the new lessons will start in september, but some schools without kitchens will be given a longer time to prepare. also, there may be a shortage of teachers with the right skills, since schools have been teaching food technology rather than practical cooking. besides, the lessons for hand-on cooking will only be one hour a week for one term. but the well-known cookery writer, pru leith, believe it will be worth it.“if wed done this thirty years ago we might not have to face the problem about obesity and lack of knowledge about food and so on. every child should know how to cook, not just so that theyll be healthy, but because its a life skill which is a real pleasure.”the renewed interest in cooking is an effort to reduce the obesity rate, which is almost the highest in europe, and according to the government, half of all british
