| It is the shared goal of Oxford University Press and the Fifteen Foundation to educate, inspire and empower youth through education. Forged in early 2008, the unique education partnership between these two organisations was established to further this goal. Fifteen was conceived in 2002 when Jamie Oliver had a simple idea: to give disadvantaged young people the chance to gain professional education and training in the restaurant industry and, in so doing, equip them for an independent, successful and positive future. There is now a Fifteen Foundation in Australia and, as you read this, there is a group of young people being given the opportunity to turn their lives around by learning about food and cooking. As a department of Oxford University, Oxford University Press will help to represent Food Technology as a credible and academically rigorous subject linked to numerous desirable and respected career paths. We believe that education changes lives. | |||||
