In order to bring Turkish food culture to the point it deserves in the national and international arena, the Ministry of National Education is opening a gastronomy high school that will promote the "recipes of our mothers" and the leave-taking flavors of traditional Turkish cuisine to the world.

While training in the field of gastronomy was previously provided only in the field of food and beverage services and gastronomy application workshops as part of vocational and technical Anatolian high schools, it is planned to open a gastronomy high school in Istanbul, where training will be given to promote Turkish cuisine in the best way both in Türkiye and in the world.

Stating that MoNE will fill another important deficiency in this field with the opening of the Gastronomy High School, Minister noted that they have included an elective course on etiquette and courtesy for students in formal education this summer holiday. Expressing that every nation has its own unique cuisine and culinary art as Turkish cuisine has, Minister underlined that they want to create literature in formal and non-formal education courses and train the qualified human resources needed by the sector.
