The college's Junior Chefs Academy offers students aged 13 to 16 the chance to explore the world of food and hospitality through hands-on experience in a professional kitchen.

The initiative is run in partnership with the Geoffrey Harrison Foundation, which is dedicated to helping young people develop their talents within the hospitality industry, while preparing them for future success.

Running every half term, the academy combines expert guidance, practical training and authentic industry experience, culminating in a graduation lunch where students present and serve their dishes to invited guests.
