Level One Level Two Level Three Our Junior Chef Academy at PL1 restaurant is a great opportunity for those between the ages of 14 and 16 who love cooking and really want to develop skills in the kitchen and learn how to cook with confidence and style. For those who are thinking of a career in catering it will whet your appetite for joining us in the future to train professionally at the College. Working with our professional chef tutors in our state-of-the-art training kitchens, this nine week course will give you a real flavour for working with food to create interesting and mouth-watering dishes that you can take home and then practice on friends and family. We will take you through a programme that is both fun and enjoyable and enables you to explore your own creativity and budding passion for cooking as you follow the recipes. Chef’s jacket, apron and knives are provided, as well as all food which you can take home in your own containers. On the final session you will be cooking for invited family and guests at our own Graduation Ceremony. We gratefully acknowledge the support of the Savoy Educational Trust whose generosity has helped to fund this programme.
