KEY STAGE 5:

WJEC Level 3 Diploma in Food Science and Nutrition:


The WJEC Level 3 Diploma in Food Science and Nutrition is an Applied Qualification. This means that each unit within the qualification has an applied purpose which acts as a focus for the learning in the unit. The applied purpose demands learning related to authentic case studies. It also requires learners to consider how the use and application of their learning impacts on themselves, other individuals, employers, society and the environment.


The applied purpose will also allow learners to learn in such a way that they develop:

  • skills required for independent learning and development

  • a range of generic and transferable skills

  • the ability to solve problems

  • the skills of project based research, development and presentation

  • the fundamental ability to work alongside other professionals, in a professional environment

  • the ability to apply learning in vocational contexts

This then can lead to University courses in:

  • Food Science

  • Dietetics

  • Nutrition

  • Nursing

  • Sports Science
