Course Description

The HSC course involves the study of: sectors, aspects, policies and legislations of the Australian Food Industry; production, processing, preserving, packaging, storage and distribution of food; factors impacting, reasons, types, steps and marketing of food product development; nutrition incorporating diet and health in Australia and influences on nutritional status. Practical experiences in developing, preparing, experimenting and presenting food are integrated throughout the course.

HSC Course

• The Australian Food Industry (25%) • Food Manufacture (25%) • Food Product Development (25%) • Contemporary Nutrition Issues (25%)

Particular Course Requirements

There is no prerequisite study for the 2 unit Preliminary course. Completion of the 2 unit Preliminary course is a prerequisite to the study of the 2 unit HSC course. In order to meet the course requirements, students study food availability and selection, food quality, nutrition, the Australian food industry, food manufacture, food product development and contemporary nutrition issues.

It is mandatory that students undertake practical activities. Such experiential learning activities are specified in the 'learn to' section of each strand.

Post-school Opportunities

The study of Food Technology Stage 6 provides students with knowledge, understanding and skills that form a valuable foundation for a range of courses at university and other tertiary institutions.

In addition, the study of Food Technology Stage 6 assists students to prepare for employment and full and active participation as citizens. In particular, there are opportunities for students to gain recognition in vocational education and training. Teachers and students should be aware of these opportunities.

The Australian Food Industry

The Australian food industry has developed in response to changes in our physical, social, technological, economic and political environment. This is evident in the structure, operations and products of the Australian food industry. The industry contributes significantly to the gross domestic product and is a major employer.

Outcomes A student: H1.2 examines the nature and extent of the Australian food industry

H1.4 evaluates the impact of the operation of an organisation within the Australian food industry on the individual, society and environment

H3.1 investigates operations of one organisation within the Australian food industry.

• explain career opportunities and working conditions, including gender issues within the Australian food industry

• identify significant government policies and legislation and explain their impact upon the Australian food industry

Food Manufacture Developments in food manufacture have an impact on society and the environment. A knowledge and understanding of food manufacturing processes informs choices and encourages responsible patterns of consumption.

Outcomes A student:

H1.1 explains manufacturing processes and technologies used in the production of food products



Production and processing of food • quality and quantity control in the selection of raw

materials for food processing • role of food additives in the manufacturing process • characteristics of equipment used in different types of

production and the factors influencing their selection • production systems used in the manufacture of food,

eg small scale, large scale, manual, automated, computerised

• describe processes that transform raw materials into manufactured food products

• describe the processing techniques, equipment, storage and distribution systems used in industry and compare with those used domestically

• quality management considerations in industrial practices to achieve safe foods for public consumption, eg hazard analysis and critical control point (HACCP); work health and safety and hygiene

• identify critical control points and describe quality control procedures in food production systems

• identify food safety hazards and risks

Preservation • reasons for preserving foods, eg safety, acceptability,

nutritive value, availability and economic viability • causes of food deterioration and spoilage:

− environmental factors (infestation, oxygen, light and water)

− enzymatic activity − microbial contamination (mould, yeast

and bacteria) • principles behind food preservation techniques,

including temperature control and restriction of moisture, exclusion of air and pH

• preservation processes, including canning, drying, pasteurising, freezing and fermenting

• prepare food using the principles of food preservation to ensure a safe product

Packaging, storage and distribution • functions of packaging and types of materials

available • current developments in packaging, including active

packaging; modified atmosphere packaging; sous vide • storage conditions and distribution systems at various

stages of food manufacture

• investigate, through experimentation, the suitability of packaging materials for different food products

Food Product Development Food product development is an integrated system involving expertise in the fields of marketing and manufacture. The food product development process applies knowledge and skills developed through study of a range of areas, including nutrition, food properties and food manufacture.

Standards Packages

The Board of Studies reports student achievement in the Higher School Certificate in relation to standards. Students receive marks that relate to performance bands, where each band is described in a statement summarising the knowledge, skills and understanding typically demonstrated by students who have achieved that standard.

Standards packages have been produced by the Board of Studies to illustrate the standards established in Higher School Certificate courses. They include descriptions of the performance bands and how they are set, certain key statistical reports, and samples of responses typically produced by students whose achievements place them on the borderline between two bands.
