I'd agree with Ryokotsusai's comments. Also, as it's a site for a course, you've got 3 errors in your HTML. That might not sound like a lot (and it's a hell of a lot less errors than we find on most sites posted for critique here), but having done courses myself where I've had to produce pages/sites for assignments, you usually lose some marks if your pages don't validate to the chosen doctype. The errors you've got in there on the home page are simple ones, and easy to fix, just make sure you run all your pages through the W3C validator, but all can help you pick up those valuable marks. Make sure as well that you're using heading tags properly (<h1>, <h2> etc.). On your project pages, for example on the details page of the "All Beef Sausage" page, you have "All Beef Sausage" inside a <p> tag surrounded by a <span> tag. Span tags are okay for applying styling to selected bits of text, but as "All Beef Sausage" is a heading, it should really use a heading tag, and then apply your styling to the heading. On that page you have "Ingredients" and "Nutritional Information" as headings, but not the "All Beef Sausage". It might not make any difference to how your page looks visually, but for your pages to make sense semantically, for example for a screenreader or search engines (Search engines pay particular attention to headings), you should be using heading tags appropriately and hierarchically. Similarly on that page you have your "Return to Order Page" link as a <h4> heading. As an internal link, that doesn't need a heading tag and is fine as just an ordinary <p> tag. As Ryokotsusai says, the look of the site is very 1990s, and though I know often the briefs for assignments aren't particularly inspiring (I've got an assignment due in on a course in a couple of weeks that includes a question on producing a web page and the instructions are that it must include text, an image and a hyperlink *yawn*) but try looking around online for examples of similar sites to get an idea of the sorts of colour schemes and graphics used on similar sites. Some assignments like these have marks allocated for styling and some don't, and I'm not suggesting you spend huge amounts of time on the styling of the site, but showing your tutor you've taken the time to consider such things is always good, and is a good habit to get into for later on when you're developing your own sites.
