Catering and Hospitality DRAFT


Our catering and hospitality courses boast outstanding industry-standard facilities to give you the best possible starting point for pursuing a career.

Catering and Hospitality Courses at Doncaster College

Train with highly experienced tutors to refine and develop your skills to a professional level, getting hands-on experience and the best on-the-job training in our commercial training bar, café and Waterfront Restaurant. You’ll be part of the kitchen and front-of-house supplying a range of dishes including tasting menus, lunches, baked goods and afternoon teas to name just a few.

There will be the chance for you to get creative and work with your peers to create full menus for our popular themed nights in which you will see your dishes served to paying customers by your fellow students demonstrating their table service skills. Alongside this you will have the opportunity to represent the College in local and WorldSkills UK competitions, showcasing their growing skills to peers and future employers.

Furthermore, our courses offer exciting opportunities for travel, incorporating them into valuable work experience. Previous students have embarked on enriching journeys to destinations like St Lucia, Portugal, Spain, and France.

Course Enrichment

We have great links with local industry meaning that, while studying with us, you will take part in work experience in local hotels, restaurants and catering facilities. You could also get the opportunity to showcase your skills at the Doncaster Delicious Food Festival alongside celebrity chefs. You could also be entered into one of the many competitions we take part in, such as the national Nestle Toque D’or competition and Young Pastry Chef of the Year.
