An exhibition of Design Technology work at the end of last term was a great way of enabling the pupils to see what they have achieved during the Autumn Term.  A good designer will analyse the work of others, so it is useful for the pupils to have the opportunity to do this. Our impressively large DT room, however, suddenly shrunk in size once it was filled with the work of every pupil!

The pupils themselves made frequent visits to the exhibition, keen to see the work of their peers and proud to show parents and teachers alike what they had achieved. Many of the parents were taken aback by the standard and volume of the outcomes, and it gave them an insight into what their son or daughter gets up to within the Design Technology department.

After all the time and effort that had gone into producing it, it was sad to close the doors on the exhibition, although the pupils' enthusiasm for displaying their work and seeing the work of others, means that further exhibitions will surely follow...
