Dear Students and Parents/Carers,
As we come to the end of Term 1, I wanted to share what we have covered in Hospitality and Catering and explain how students can prepare for their practical mock exam next term.
Term 1 – What Have We Learnt
During Term 1, we have been learning about nutrition and the importance of different nutrients in our diet.
We have covered:
- Macronutrients – carbohydrates, proteins and fats.
- Micronutrients – vitamins and minerals.
- Cooking methods – how different cooking methods affect the nutritional value of food.
All lessons and revision resources are available on Microsoft Teams. I have also attached a copy of the booklet students have been completing in lessons to support their revision.
Next Term – Practical Mock Exam
Next term, students will have the opportunity to practise preparing, cooking and presenting two dishes in preparation for their mock practical assessment.
Students will need to choose one of the following options:
Option 1: A main course with accompaniments and a dessert.
Option 2: A starter and a main course with accompaniments.
The dishes must demonstrate a range of high-level practical cooking skills and be suitable for presentation in a restaurant.
Students should consider:
- The level of practical skills demonstrated.
- The nutritional content of their dishes.
- Suitable cooking methods.
- Time management and organisation.
- Professional presentation and garnishing.
I will attach a practical skills checklist and grading criteria to help students understand the skills required to achieve the higher grades.
Half-Term Revision Task
Over half-term, students will be set a revision task linked to the dishes they have chosen for their mock exam.
They will need to research:
- The different macronutrients and micronutrients found in each dish.
- Which ingredients provide these nutrients.
- How the nutrients help the body and contribute to a balanced diet.
- How their chosen cooking methods may affect the nutritional value of the food.
For example, if a student is preparing a chicken dish, they should be able to explain that chicken provides protein, which is needed for growth and repair of body tissues.
This revision will help students develop their understanding of nutrition and prepare them for the written elements of their Hospitality and Catering assessment.
I hope this information helps students feel prepared and confident for next term. The practical mock exam is a fantastic opportunity for students to demonstrate the skills they have developed and identify areas they can improve before their final assessment.
Please encourage students to use the half-term holiday to research their dishes, complete their revision and practise their cooking skills at home where possible.
If students or parents have any questions about dish choices, ingredients or the mock exam, please feel free to speak to me or contact me by email.
Thank you for your continued support, and I hope everyone has a lovely half-term break.
Kind regards,
Mrs. Maley
