Design Technology

Curriculum Intent Statement

We want to inspire and challenge our students to use their imagination to create innovative solutions to problems whilst considering their own and others needs. Our curriculum is designed to grow responsible designers and conscientious consumers. Through current, relevant and engaging topics we will; ignite curiosity, equip students with skills and knowledge and nurture critical thinkers.

We teach students to follow the iterative design process which facilitates our students to become designers who are comfortable in taking risks and are capable of analysing and evaluating their own work. We provide opportunities for all our students to acquire technical and practical expertise needed to perform everyday tasks confidently and to participate successfully in an increasingly technological world.

**Urgent Notice – Water Supply Issue at School, 3rd April 2025**

We regret to inform you that there is an issue with the water supply in one of our school buildings. Unfortunately, this has left us with no option but to send KS3 (Yr 7, 8 & 9) students home at 12.30pm. 

We are working with Thames Water to resolve the matter and hope that normal school operations will resume tomorrow. We will keep you updated with progress and apologise for the inconvenience this has caused.
