The Design & Technology Department

Design & Technology in the Curriculum

Design and Technology prepares pupils to participate in tomorrow’s rapidly changing technologies.

The subject calls for pupils to become autonomous and creative problem solvers, as individuals and members of teams, who must look for needs, wants and opportunities and respond to them by developing a range of ideas and
making products and systems.

Design and Technology enables pupils to:
Understand how design and technology affects our lives;
Contribute to the use and development of technology in our society through
informed participation;
Relate their personal experience to the work of commerce and industry.
