Develops students' confidence, competence and
responsibility for designing, producing and evaluating to meet needs
and opportunities. Students will gain knowledge and understanding of
the factors and influences that contribute to successful design and
production.
Provides students with a broad knowledge and
understanding of food properties - where it comes from, processing,
preparation and their interrelationship, nutritional considerations and
consumption patterns. They will learn the importance of hygiene and
safe working practices and legislation in the production of food and
see the development of food-specific skills, which can enable students
to produce quality food products. This best part is that they learn to
explore the richness, pleasure and variety food adds to life and how it
contributes to both vocational and general life experiences.
ETS can organise local, domestic and international tours that
incorporate visits and hands on experiences at restaurants, cooking
schools, hotels, produce markets, farms. See the different cooking
techniques and learn about local produce and farming of other
countries, regions and cultures. An amazing way to exploring food
related issues is through a range of practical experiences, being able
to make informed and appropriate choices with regard to food.
Students will develop the ability and confidence to design, produce
and evaluate solutions to situations involving food and learn to select
and use appropriate ingredients, methods and equipment safely and
competently.

Develops a broad knowledge of the properties, performance
and uses of textiles in which fabrics, colouration, yarns and fibres are
explored. Students will learn to examine the historical, cultural and
contemporary perspectives on textile design and develop an
appreciation of the factors affecting them as textile consumers.
Through investigation, they will learn about the work of textile
designers, make judgements about the appropriateness of design
ideas, the selection of materials and tools and the quality of textile
items.
A local, domestic or international Textiles and Design tour with ETS
provides an opportunity for students to examine the work of
designers and expand their knowledge and understanding of
historical, cultural and contemporary textiles and designs and the
different materials and processes available to different areas and
cultures.
Due to the wide variety and individuality of tour subjects, we do
not have one specific itinerary for Technology subjects.
Contact Us for a sample itinerary in the country of your choice, or
please Contact Us with your ideas for a tailor made itinerary. It is
also helpful to include any particular place of interest you may like to
visit so we can incorporate this into the itinerary or we can provide
suggestions to suit your tour and budgets.
