Year 13 Food Innovation Technology (Level 3)

This course extends the ability of students to work independently to find innovative solutions to a given issue or brief. 

Students will use both theory and practical applications to produce technological solutions to real problems. They will work with and build a relationship with an authentic client. Students will have opportunities to work with experts in the Food Technology field to produce new and specialised products, while considering social, environmental, cultural, political and ethical aspects.  Students will investigate the work of food innovators, and explore how food trends, changing eating habits, sustainability practices and consumerism influence the development of new food products.

They will develop a prototype that reflects their ability to meet the specifications of a brief.
