Design Technology department

Within the department, we have a Head of Department, one teacher, and a technician. The department has created a rich and engaging Key Stage 3 curriculum, where students respond to creative design scenarios, which are delivered through different units, to support students in developing their design, making, and evaluation skills through a combination of practical and theory-based lessons. For example, ‘The Mad Hatter’s Tea Party’, ‘Engineering Time’, and ‘It’s a Jolly Holiday’ activity pack. This ensures all students have a sound and detailed subject knowledge, whilst making outstanding progress across all of the Technology strands (Product Design, Graphics, Textiles, and Food Technology), fostering independence in preparation for AQA Design and Technology, or WJEC Level ½ Hospitality and Catering at Key Stage 4 level.

The program of study is fully resourced with high-quality materials produced by staff across the trust who know this specification well. We develop our teachers to become ‘experts’ in preparing students for GCSE examinations, using our thorough and systematic methods devised over many years. We have the benefit of support from the OGAT family of schools, the Outwood Institute of Education (OIE) who provide ongoing CPD, support, materials, advice, and coaching and who model lessons alongside us to develop our expertise. As an indication of our success, each year over 85.7% of year 11 students achieve a pass in Design Technology qualifications, with strong positive average progress for all students across the department.

The classrooms comprise a modern, recently refurbished catering room, a well-equipped woodworking room, containing a wide range of hand tools, electronics equipment, workshop machinery including scroll saws, a wood turning lathe, a pillar drill, and a band saw, a laser cutter and a 3-D printer. There is a library (Learning Resource Centre – LRC) run by a full-time enthusiastic librarian, with access to a wide range of curriculum support in books and online.

There is a strong whole-school literacy strategy that aims to ensure that all students can gain the educational and personal benefits to support them in accessing resources and assessments. Reciprocal reading tasks are embedded into theory and practice within Technology theory lessons. This approach supports students to master keyword definitions and key content/ concepts, ahead of Key Stage 3 end-of-unit assessments and Key Stage 4 examinations to ensure an inclusive and supportive education for all students.
