"Billingsgate Seafood Training School was established in 2000. We are based just above Billingsgate market, the famous and largest inland fish market in the UK . As a charity the original aim of the school was to teach children about fish; how it is caught, prepared, cooked and can be enjoyed as part of a healthy diet. We have also partnered with the Sea Fish Industry Authority (Seafish) to design and deliver knife skills and other courses for industry training".

See a great article about the School's work in the Financial Times here.

"In 2006 we extended our facilities installing kitchen stations (made possible by Aldgate and Allhallows Barking Exhibition Foundation, Fishmongers' Company and a grant from the Marine Fisheries Agency). These compliment our wet room (for the preparation of fish) along with a lecture room. We now offer a wide range of courses to the general public covering many aspects of buying, preparation and cooking all types of seafood. If we don't have a course that suits you, please just ask".
