Hands-on practicals

The school is competitive and you have to be pretty well up on the basics of the subject as the course is fast-paced and has no time for slow coaches. Good layout for both disability and wheelchair users, clean and up to date technology, providing lots of pastoral activities, student union and support excellent.

Valuable Experience with Room for Improvement

Harbour Space was an overall enriching and positive experience. The majority of the instructors were exceptional, providing invaluable knowledge and insights that significantly enhanced my learning journey. While the program delivered on many fronts, there were some areas where it fell short. Specifically, the promise of investors backing our ideas was not fully realized, and the networking events, although present, lacked the depth and engagement needed to forge meaningful connections. Despite these shortcomings, the education and experience gained were highly valuable.

Student in 2013

I really enjoyed my time at LCB! I've found that my skills when I entered the work force were much higher than others. I think though there was a big portion missing in recipe development and composition. True- we did learn it through memorizing the recipes, but we really were missing classes on how different ingredients affect the final textures.. how you can change them... etc. That I still am not an expert in .. and I create recipes! Ouf! Also, I don't know if you still do a month of sugar work... but that really wasn't necessary and should be either cut or minimized to just 2 lessons. It's such a niche skill to know that I would have really preferred more technical skills. I loved the old location. The "rumors" I'm getting about the new location are that it's not as good, unfortunately - that i's become more of a money focused/marketing machine. I really hope that this image can be fixed as I love LCB and enjoyed my time there! Oh also - there should be more help for students to get jobs and featuring old students accomplishments - from cookbook launches to new bakeries so that current and old students can support them.
