Everything you need to teach balanced diet at KS3 - two complete resources, full answer keys, and no preparation required. This lesson pack covers all seven food groups, the Eatwell Guide, and how nutritional needs change from person to person for students aged 11-14.

A balanced diet means eating the right amount of carbohydrates, protein, fats, vitamins, minerals, fibre and water to stay healthy.

The main worksheet contains 18 questions worth 100 marks across three progressive sections: knowledge recall covering the seven food groups through multiple-choice, true/false and fill-in-the-blank questions (30 marks); application and understanding through short-answer questions, a nutrient-matching exercise and key definitions (40 marks); and extension and analysis through extended writing, a real-world case study and an Eatwell Guide evaluation (30 marks). The extension pack provides four enrichment activities - a 12-term vocabulary match, a 30-mark challenge quiz, a 20-mark case study, and a rubric-assessed Teach It Back task. Full answer keys and detailed marking guidance are included for everything.

Both resources are ready to print or set as digital homework with no extra planning required, making this pack a straightforward way to cover the whole topic in one purchase. Buying this bundle saves £1 compared to purchasing both resources separately (£3 + £3 = £6 individually, £5 as a pack).

Google Classroom ready.
