What is home economics about?

In family economics, students understand the factors that influence the happiness of individuals and families in families and communities, and the actions people take to strengthen and maintain these environments.

In food and nutrition students evaluate current nutritional problems and theories, identify factors that affect people's choice and behavior, ponder it, and make decisions based on knowledge.

Through the process of selecting, preparing, cooking, and providing meals, students develop their creativity and experience a sense of accomplishment. At the same time, they develop personal and interpersonal understanding and skills that contribute to happiness.

Many home economics teachers are also teachers of food technology and hotel management. The focus of food technology is to develop knowledge and skills related to the use of organisms and raw materials for processing, preservation, packaging and storage of products.

The focus of hospitality is in the preparation, manufacture and service of food in the commercial environment. The Hotel Standards Association is an industry leading training organization (ITO) responsible for developing and overseeing NZQA unit standards and hotel industry qualifications.
