Design & Technology

Our extensive design and technology facilities allow for a wide range of activities both as part of the curriculum and for extended projects out of school hours. The boys can join from the age of seven, following through, if they wish, to A Level. Many boys go on to pursue careers in design, architecture and the various branches of engineering.

In their first years the emphasis is on the development of key design skills as they grow in confidence and creativity. Later on, they are able to tackle more complex tasks involving a variety of media from the more traditional materials to electronics and computer-aided design and manufacture.

Design and Technology places our pupils at the leading edge of the industrial world where innovation, creativity and style meet the practicalities of engineering. With this in mind, the boys are encouraged to participate widely in local and national competitions while liaising with our many associates in industry to gain experience of design and technology in action.
