The need for a regulatory body for British cookery schools goes back a few years before the birth of The Independent Cookery Schools Association. The idea began simply as a conversation between industry leaders nearly a decade ago. A few years later, ICSA was formed. Now celebrating our Fifth year, we continue to grow and focus on our core values.
- Sustainability
- Seasonality
- Sourcing Regionally
- Supporting British Producers, Suppliers & high standards of animal welfare.
Focusing on applying nutrition and healthy eating at all levels. - Single use plastic-free kitchens.
Our mission to teach and aspire students and manufacturers to switch to eco-friendly products, available to commercial and domestic kitchens.
Look for the ICSA ‘Kite Mark’ as an assurance of teaching standards and ethics.
