Achievement Day - FoodWise Short Course 

Some of our Year 8, 9 and 10 pupils have started studying the ASDAN - Foodwise Short Course. 

The ASDAN - FoodWise Short Course offers exciting and rewarding activities to develop skills and knowledge through cooking and food preparation.  

This course helps learners to develop practical cooking skills, as well as personal, social, and work-related skills.  These abilities will support academic and vocational learning as a whole. 

The ASDAN - FoodWise Short Course will enable our pupils to: 

• learn what is meant by healthy eating and wellbeing 
• learn and demonstrate the skills and techniques needed to cook 
• gain an understanding of the importance of sustainability and cooking on a budget 
• learn about aspects of the food industry and how it operates. 

Some or our pupils had the opportunity to showcase their skills at the Achievement Day at the end of the last school year.

They produced an amazing finger buffet including vegetarian options, practised their presentation skills and complied with food safety and hygiene guidelines. 

The pupils did a fabulous job and enjoyed serving staff, parents, and carers.
