Jermaine Weeks
Hospitality & Catering
Seventeen-year-old student, Jermaine Weeks, is coming to the end of his first year of a three-year Professional Chef Diploma at Westminster Kingsway College and was one of the three finalists at the ‘New Ways With Bramley’ competition. Jermaine said he is really enjoying the course and is very excited about progressing to the second year. Jermaine was previously doing a GNVQ in Catering & Hospitality at the college, so decided to take the Professional Chef Diploma at Vincent Square. Jermaine said, “I knew it was one of the best colleges in the country for what I wanted to do. I would definitely recommend it, no doubt”.

Jermaine was very surprised to discover that he was one of the finalists for the competition, “I couldn’t believe it when I found out, I thought it was a joke at first!” Jermaine has wanted to be a chef for as long as he can remember, “When I was a child I used to sit on the floor and bang pots and pans. I’ve always wanted to be a chef so this is such a great opportunity for me”. He would eventually like to become a head chef at a hotel kitchen.
