Search ’21st Century Skills’ on the internet and you’ll be informed that both now, and in the future, the world needs people who are creative, able to solve problems, think critically, communicate effectively and collaborate with others. Design & Technology is the only subject that truly offers all of this in one package!

In Design & Technology at Hautlieu, you will be encouraged to hone your design and practical skills through a series of mini-projects that you’ll experience in Year 10. You’ll be given the opportunity to learn about and use a variety of tools, machinery, processes and materials all of which will better prepare you, not only for your exams, but also for your final project that will occupy a large proportion of your lesson time in Year 11.

If you can draw well, if you can use a computer effectively and if you’re someone who enjoys the challenge of designing and making things, Design & Technology at Hautlieu might just be the subject for you.
