The new Technology & Design Department was
officially opened in June 2007 offering a range
to modern facilities & equipment. The department
consists to 2 planning rooms, 2 manufacturing
workshops, a number of stores and a large foyer

Pupils have the opportunity to use these new
facilities to develop their design & technology
skills throughout KS3, GCSE & A Level. Planning
rooms are fully equipped with a large number of
high speed computers allowing pupils to use CAD
