Format Column

I noticed that if I wanted a  DateTime column  (as an example) Wed 01-Jan-2020 20:15 usually I would expect to write:
        <GridColumn
                Field=@nameof(Job.bookingTime) HeaderText="BT" Format="ddd dd-MMM HH:mm"
                Type="ColumnType.Date" TextAlign="TextAlign.Left" Width="30">
          </GridColumn>
However, the column is displayed 01 01-Jan-2020 20:15, The "ddd" does not appear to be working.

                    var employee = (context as OrdersDetails); 
                   <span>@employee.OrderDate.ToString("ddd, dd-MMM HH:mm")</span>               } 
            </Template>
