Leiths School of Food and Wine

The Leiths School of Food and Wine is located in the London neighborhood of Marylebone, about a five-minute walk from the Baker Street Underground station. Its full-time courses are six months long and cost £13,500, and its intensive courses run for five days a week over two months. The school explains that while many students manage to find part-time work (usually around 10 hours a week) during their studies, “it can be difficult to combine a job with the demands of our course.” The Leiths School of Food and Wine was founded by Caroline Waldegrave in 1975 after she took a break from teaching French at schools like Eton College. “I wanted an adult environment where people wanted to learn things as much as I wanted to teach them,” she said in an interview with The Guardian. Chefs who have studied at Leiths include Sarah Brown (wife of former British Prime Minister Gordon Brown), Rosemary Shrager (TV personality), Sophie Michell (TV personality), Nuno Mendes (chef), Melissa Hemsley (food writer) and Claire Ptak (pastry chef).
