Course summary

A-Level boys are encouraged to take a broad view of design and technology, to develop their capacity to design and make products and to appreciate the complex relations between design, materials, manufacture and marketing. The course continues to provide boys with the opportunity to solve a problem, design and make a product. Boys are encouraged to develop their own thoughts and ideas about design.
