From my perspective - short lessons on rotation - this perfectly supports progression. It gives a snapshot of every area that will be covered at KS4 and so it actively promotes the GCSE ... This supports my teaching and would enable cover lessons and homework to be carried out in a far more structured way. -- Liz MacRae, Head of Food and Nutrition Studies, Bethany School, KentIt links to the aspects that now need to be taught due to having to change things for the new GCSE. It is also a more updated publication from the books we currently use which are based on food technology. The emphasis on science and functions of ingredients are more relevant and are at a level which is more suitable for Key Stage 3. -- Head of Food Technology Department at a school in ReadingThe layout of this book is easy to read and very eye-catching to engage pupils. The content covered is in line with the GCSE curriculum and provides a good level of depth for most pupils in KS3. I am delighted with the book and can see it being very useful for preparing pupils for KS4. I also feel that it will be very useful for lower ability pupils in year 10 and 11. * Mrs Jane Milne *

Book SynopsisRecent years have seen a decline in craft and creative education in schools and a shift from practical to theoretical learning models in higher education. Young people are leaving school with no idea that craft-based careers are even possible, and graduates of craft-based degree courses are entering the workplace with so few hand skills that their employers must train them from scratch. Where did the idea come from that white-collar work should be rewarded more with money and status than that of a blue-collar worker? Intelligent Hands looks at this phenomenon, the historical precedents that led us here and why hand skills are crucial in education and for lifelong learning. The authors are on a mission to enlighten the uninitiated and persuade the nay-sayers who dismiss craft as no more than a nice hobby or believe that doing things with your hands is for those who can't use their heads. And for the converted, we offer more grist to your mills, ammunition for funding applications, inspiration for those who plan school curricula and further reading for your speciality. Intelligent Hands brings existing research and information together in an accessible format for those for those who don't have time to trawl through all the information that is already out there. With a brief look at the history of practical education, we have collated some of the research that has been done in disparate fields to show that combining physical ways of learning with the conceptual in education is the way forward. We include the personal stories of ten people who have discovered that working with their hands has improved their quality of life. Through the three sections of the book, we look at how physical labouring became separated from academic study, how we became divorced from the materials that surround us and the important role that the crafts and creativity have to play in education, not just for the lower streams, but for everyone. In short, how making is a skill for life.Trade Review'Intelligent Hands is an intelligent book that carefully, clearly and definitively describes and advocates for the value of making skills at all stages of life, and swiftly unpicks the barriers to engagement with evidence from those already immersed in making. Embracing mental health and wellbeing, creative career and education choices and long held ambitions the book gives compelling context and signposting for anyone seeking to enter the craft world and needing to more deeply understand its depth, breadth and value. Intelligent Hands is a vital and unique addition to the bookshelves and activities of anyone wishing to add to their knowledge and understanding of crafting and making. It is a handbook for the future and its timely messages must go far and wide.’ Lesley Butterworth, Past General Secretary, NSEAD ‘Making can be cherished solo or as a community making together. Hand skills are like an alphabet of making that forms a language of communication. I was lucky enough to have been educated with wood, metal, clay, textiles printing and art as a child at Henbury Comprehensive school in the 1970s, every child had the opportunity to experience this as part of the standard national curriculum. As a result of these formative years my life has been full and fruitful. Where has this aspect of the curriculum gone? We are letting our young people down to not educate them with hand skills in conjunction with other subjects. Congratulations to writers and publishers for bringing to light this essential subject.’ Kate Malone is a co-founder of FiredUp4 ‘If you are interested in applied creativity, skills, competencies, imagination, problem solving and cultural expression, get your hands on this book. Intelligent Hands explores and celebrates embodied intelligence and humanity, which are so critical to all our futures.’ Daniel Charny MBE, Founder Director at Forth Together CIC and Professor of Design at Kingston School of Art
