Technology Department

The Technology Department's courses offer a broad view of how technology is used in the world around us and challenges pupils to develop their own skills and ideas within its safe, caring and supportive environment.

All pupils in both Key Stage Three and Key Stage Four have the opportunity to experience a range of 'Technological Activities'. During their time spent with the department pupils can develop their own individual skills as well as solve all kinds of design problems in a practical way by undertaking a variety of design & make projects.
