Design Technology Key Stage 4

At Key Stage 4 we currently offer AQA Product Design and AQA Graphic Products.  Pupils access the same facilities they used in KS3 but there is a greater emphasis on the use of both ICT and CAD/CAM.  The recent conversion of our 4th classroom into a dedicated ICT suite is as a result of this need.

Pupils in this current Year 11 are working on the 'old' exam specifications whilst those in Year 10 will be the first to follow the new ones.  Coursework accounts for 60% and the exam the remaining 40% of the final grade.  The new specifications have seen some changes to the way the courses are assessed.  There is one 2 hour exam paper in the new specifications and only one tier of entry.
