GCSE Technology
GCSE Technology builds on the experiences and skills gained during Year 8 -10, and links well with the design work carried out during Year 10. The subject offers students of both sexes a valuable, interesting and worthwhile experience. This specification provides an innovative and imaginative qualification, rewarding flair in design. It encourages students to recognise the contribution they can make to the environment through careful consideration and selection of sustainable resources.
Candidates will develop as effective and independent learners. They will actively be involved in making decisions, consider sustainability and combine skills with knowledge and understanding in order to design and make quality products. Technology calls for candidates to become creative problem solvers, as individuals and members of a team.
We offer two different GCSEs:
