Check Out Our Mug Shots!

The D&T Resistant Materials department will undergo a few changes in our new school in September which includes the purchase of some new equipment to enhance the delivery of the subject at key stage three.

Pupils have been trialling a new dye-sublimation project where pupils have designed a logo using CAD (computer aided design) software which is then transferred onto a ceramic mug using the dye-sub (heat transfer) process mentioned above. The final product is then packaged using a net designed on our Camm 1 vinyl cutters. 

The whole project has been supported by appropriate design and research sheets which have a direct link to our Key Stage Four Graphics course should the students opt into that direction in year nine.

Our latest pupil voice survey suggests that those trialling the project which will go live in September enjoyed the experience very much. We think the results speak for themselves!
