Each week you will review one of the formal or analytical elements and become confident discussing this in reference to a piece of
artwork. You will learn to apply keywords and demonstrate your knowledge and understanding of the formal elements. You will
cover these in lessons and be expected to learn the definitions and the key language as homework. You will be tested on the key
language in class and to apply your knowledge you will write a piece of analysis that is relevant to your project and can be
included in your coursework.

WJEC LEVEL 1&2 HOSPITALITY & CATERING
 UNIT 1: Exam Content 40%
 Unit 2: Controlled Assessment 60%
Each week you will receive 6 periods of Hospitality & Catering. Generally 4 periods will be practical focused. 2 periods will be theory focused.

The practical will focus on building confidence and independence in the kitchen, whilst understanding safe and hygienic working practices. It will also allow students to develop professional catering
skills at the same time as learning about the nutrition in each dish.
Recipes will be announced on class charts each week, with options to personalize dishes where appropriate and cater for special dietary requirements.

Theory work will cover the topics below. Each topic, and specifically the relevant page numbers for each Knowledge Organiser quiz, will be shared each half term on class charts under a homework
assignment.
These booklets will be printed and distributed in class. The QR codes below link to a digital copy, for your convenience. A printed copy will be provided in class. Please bring this to every lesson.

 Aid Money, equipment, or services that are provided for people, countries, or organisations who need them but cannot provide them
 for themselves

 Emergency or short-term aid Needed after sudden disasters such as aid sent from the UK to Nepal following the 2015 earthquake

 Conditional or tied aid When one country donates money or resources to another (bilateral aid) but with conditions attached. These conditions will often
 be in the donor’s favour, e.G. Aid from china to countries in Africa

 Charitable aid Funded by donations from the public through organisations such as OXFAM and water aid.

 Long-term or development aid Involves providing local communities with education and skills for sustainable development, usually through organisations such as
 practical action.

 Multilateral aid Given through international organisations rather than by one specific country, such as the world bank providing aid to Ecuador
 following the 2016 earthquake

 Top-down development Large-scale, expensive development projects funded by organisations such as national governments and/or the world bank.

 Bottom-up development Small-scale, sustainable development carried out and funded by NGOs (non-governmental organisations) in partnership with local
 communities e.g. Water aid providing hand pumps in Nicaragua.

 Trade Buying and selling goods and services

 Inter-governmental agreements International agreements between governments can help to reduce uneven development. The UK has inter-governmental
 agreements with 26 other countries as part of the European union (EU).
