All students at KS3 follow a three-year programme on a carousel. As students' progress through Year 7 to 9 they are given the opportunity to focus on specific aspects of the subject such as Product Design, Food, Preparation and Nutrition, Engineering, Textiles and Graphics. However, at its core is creativity and imagination. To do this effectively, students are taught a broad range of subject knowledge and that draw upon additional disciplines such as Mathematics, Science, Computing and Art. Through a variety of creative and practical activities, students are taught the knowledge, understanding and skills needed to engage in an iterative process of designing and making in all specialisms of Design and Technology.
At KS4, they offer students the opportunity to either choose GCSE Food, Preparation and Nutrition, GCSE Design & Technology or GCSE Engineering. They also offer the Vocational course in Engineering. At KS5 they offer A level Design and Technology through Product Design. The successful candidate would be expected to teach across the key stages from KS3 to KS4.
Their facilities offer students CAD/CAM access in the department, they have modern machinery and equipment throughout the department. All staff have access to their own laptops with wireless access. This is an exciting time for the department as we continue to develop our curriculum to enthuse and challenge our students appropriately.
