Ryde launches new cookery school

Ryde School has been chosen as a pilot school for the Leiths Academy which offers new school-based courses.

A brand new purpose-built cookery room has been created, with eight kitchen stations and a demonstration kitchen at the front, equipped with cameras to provide students with close-ups of both preparation and plating.

Lower Sixth Form students who chose to take up cookery sessions this year are all being taught the Leiths course and are assessed termly by a member of Leiths Academy.

At the end of the course, they will be awarded a Leiths School of Food and Wine Certificate.
