Other way round. The hob (as it is an electric, not a Gas hob 
) takes a high current so it needs the cooker Switch supply. It cannot be supplied from a plug and socket.
The oven (if it is a typical UK single oven) will take about 10 to 12 amps so can be connected using a 13Amp fused plug to a convenient socket.
