This creative and thought-provoking qualification gives students the practical skills, theoretical knowledge and confidence to succeed in innovative and creative industries. You will investigate influences on design and technology, whilst enjoying opportunities to put their learning into practice by producing products to design briefs. Product Design seeks to develop your knowledge, understanding, skills and application for designing and manufacturing products. Product design encompasses a wide range of design disciplines but is firmly rooted in the skills required to design and make high quality products. Products that are fit for purpose, satisfy wants and needs, enhance our day-today lives and, most importantly, give you the opportunity to demonstrate their design and technology capability. This course gives you a fantastic opportunity to show off your creativity and flair using sketching, modelling and a plethora of manufactured outcomes.
• You need at least five GCSE passes at grade 4 – 9 to study at this level. • Grade 6 in Product Design GCSE.
Most focus on examinations at the end of the qualification as the main assessment method but some also require the completion of non-examination assessments (NEAs).
