Welcome
to the Design and Technology Faculty.
We prepare our
students for a world of rapidly changing technologies
by developing their understanding of how these technologies
can be used to improve the quality of life. Design and
technology is delivered through the mainly discrete
areas of:
Food
Textiles
Resistant
Materials
Graphics
Our students learn to think creatively to develop ideas
and skills for making products and systems; by doing
so, they learn to solve problems individually and as
members of a team. All of our students become informed
users of the products they develop; they become innovators,
combining an analysis of needs and opportunities together
with a clear understanding of the associated social
and environmental issues.
All students regardless of
gender, ablity, ethnic origin and cultural/social backgrounds
have the opportunity to develop their skills using a
range of materials. Effective classroom management ensures
equal access to equipment. .
