Food Preparation and Nutrition
To inspire students with awe and wonder about food, its nutritional value, its effect on the planet and its importance within modern society. Students will learn that food is a staple that keeps our bodies alive, but it is also a key element of society that brings people together. International travel and migration have allowed for the sharing of foods and recipes, and the opportunity to celebrate diversity through the food that we eat. At Ryedale School students will learn about food from a diverse range of countries and cultures, whilst learning key cooking skills and kitchen safety. They will also consider issues around food sustainability and food provenance, as a result of the vast choice that we have today.

Extra-Curricular and Enrichment
Throughout the course we will look for opportunities for professionals in the food trade to share their knowledge and experience. In the past, examples of this, have included visits from local chefs and demonstrations from local butchers and fish mongers. |
