Students from the Year 12 Asdan class hosted a European Food Festival as part of their Certificate of Personal Effectiveness qualification.

Staff and students alike were invited to sample dishes from a range of European countries including Latvia, Italy and Sweden.  There was a plethora of nibbles to tantalise the taste buds including borsch, Latvian dumplings, Swedish meatballs, olives, feta cheese, tzatziki and even shortbread and Irn-bru representing Scotland.

Asdan is an education charity and awarding organisation, who provide flexible and engaging programmes and qualifications that help students develop and hone skills for learning, work and life. This particular certificate offers imaginative ways of accrediting students’ activities. The European Food Festival was the students’ 'nod to Brexit' and provided evidence of their ability to plan, organise, host and review an event which also gave them the opportunity to work together as a functional team.

Personal Development Lead Mr Beale said, “The event was a resounding success and enjoyed by all.  I am proud of the way students pulled together to organise the event and they certainly did an excellent job”.
