In Year 1 students will have the freedom to take design risks and innovate in a situation where it is safe to test and refine ideas. This then gives students the confidence in year 2 to develop these skills further in their own design brief with a client or end user. Students will be taken through a cycle of iterative design to put the theory they learn into practice on a real design, make and evaluate project. A Level students are encouraged to independently identify a real world design problem to solve.
At Sixth Form, entry to Abbotsholme is normally dependent on GCSE results (or equivalent passes) of at least five C grades/level 4 or above.
