NCEA Level 3 Technology - Hospitality

Course Description

Teacher in Charge: Mrs S. Sharp.

Students will complete a range of level 3 standards in hospitality that will provide a pathway to tertiary study in the hospitality sector or the skills to gain entry level jobs in the food industry. This course offers both practical and theoretical application of knowledge and skills required in the hospitality industry.  Level 3 Hospitality recognises the competence, knowledge and skills required to successfully prepare and present food and beverage in a commercial kitchen. Students will demonstrate their ability to comply with health and safety legislation. As part of this course, students will complete barista training at level 3 and run a cafe during the school day. These are excellent skills to have for entry level into the hospitality industry or looking at part-time employment. The course is creative and interesting, and allows students to learn useful skills that are in high demand in the workforce.

A student will be withdrawn from a standard if the teacher is not confident that the achievement of the standard is within the reach of the student or there is no evidence of the student attempting the assessment.
