D & T

Design and Technology Safety Induction Day – held 21st October.

Another successful and engaging learning experience for students studying MDT wood, metal or engineering in 2017. The Design and Technology department takes safety seriously, in doing so it is a requirement that all upper school students attend this day and refine and engage with safe workshops knowledge and skills. The day is based on industry standards and was enjoyed by all, highlights including testing P.P.E and fire safety training. It is our hope that the young men and woman in this area gain skills to make fine projects and safe attitudes towards looking after one another.
