Year 12 Students will use their experiences from Year 11 to enhance their making skills completing a variety of prototypes as well as improve their presentation skills by creating a portfolio using a variety of computing skills. With this, students will enhance their theory practice and will be introduced to new manufacturing processes in the world of Design and Technology. Year 13 Students will complete a 35 page A3 portfolio and prototype. This piece of work is worth 50% of their A-Level and will contribute to any evidence needed for Universities when needing to demonstrate documentation for design and making skills. Students will then complete two exams which are in the theme of Technical principles (30%) and Design & make principles (20%).
● Ability to develop ideas through sustained and focused investigations informed by contextual and other sources, demonstrating analytical and critical understanding. ● Ability to explore and select appropriate resources, media, materials, techniques and processes, reviewing and refining ideas as work develops. ● Ability to record ideas, observations and insights relevant to intentions, reflecting critically on work and progress. ● Ability to present a personal and meaningful response that realises intentions and, where appropriate, makes connections between visual and other elements.
