If you want to do both courses then you must consider that you will only be able to gain a maximum of 20 credits across the two courses (Achievement Standard Credits). No matter what course you choose, you will have entry into both Level 2 Food and Nutrition and Health.

Recommended Prior Learning

Completing the Food and Nutrition course at Year 10 is recommended as it provides the students with the necessary basic knowledge and terminology related to food, diet, and nutrition. However, Year 10 Health is also prerequisite for this course as it begins the development of a holistic understanding of health-related concepts. This gives students a good head start.
