Develop your understanding of the design and manufacture of objects and artefacts including traditional and modern products, architecture and furniture. During this course, you will explore different material areas, investigate manufacturing methods and broaden your skills in manipulating a wide variety of tools and equipment within the workshop. This will include developing cutting, shaping and finishing skills using a range of materials including timbers, polymers and metals. You will also develop your digital technical drawing skills and use of CADCAM which will enable you to become a competitor within the global design and technology environment.
All candidates are expected to achieve a minimum of five GCSEs at grade 9 to 5, including English and Maths, and at least grade 7 in the A Level subjects to be studied, or equivalent subjects.
Two components: a personal Investigation (60%) completed between January in Year 12 and Christmas in Year 13 and an externally set assignment (40%) completed between January and Easter in Year 13.
