Can candidates use the internet as a source of information in the Planning Session?

The Planning Session should be held under examination conditions and be treated as a written examination.

The internet must not be used as a resource during the Planning Session. Students may print out recipes from the internet during lesson time and add them to a recipe folder which they can use during the Planning Session. Students may use folders of recipes that they have built up during the Food and Nutrition course, as well as recipe books, but they must not include notes.

Please note that candidates can access recipe books stored in a folder electronically, but you must make sure the candidate cannot access the internet or anything else on the computer beyond this.
