The Travel and Tourism curriculum provides students with a coherent, ambitious and vocationally relevant curriculum that enables them to develop a secure understanding of the structure and purpose of the travel and tourism sector.
The curriculum places a strong emphasis on practical skills such as professional communication, teamwork, problem-solving and independent working. These skills are embedded across units and developed through applied, real-world tasks that reflect employer expectations. As students’ progress, they are increasingly challenged to think critically, work independently and apply knowledge in more complex contexts. The curriculum also ensures students develop strong research, digital and presentation skills, enabling them to interpret data, produce reports and deliver professional presentations. These skills support future academic study and reflect employer expectations within the industry.
The curriculum also promotes strong personal development. Through its focus on ethical practice, cultural awareness and sustainability, students develop social responsibility and respect for others. This aligns with FCJ values and supports the development of confident, reflective and considerate young people.
