The Design & Technology Product Design course gives students the opportunity to complete a project designing and making a product to meet the requirements of a brief. The project represents 50% of the final mark and the remaining 50% comes from a theory paper which covers a range of design and technology related topics.
Assessment is through final examination and the design folder for the coursework project. The final examination is a two-and-a-half-hour paper and has an increased emphasis on maths and science in its content. Learners will choose their own project (which must be agreed by staff for its suitability). The design folder is the evidence of all design and making work done during the project and is usually in the form of an A3 bound document.
