We seek to deliver the skills and experiences, which will develop real craftsmanship in the use of a wide range of materials within a setting of increasingly complex and up-to-date use of technologies. The students will develop life skills and be able to problem solve in a variety of settings that develop creative thinkers and independent learners.

To prepare students to participate in tomorrow’s rapidly changing world of technology. They learn to think creatively to solve problems, as members of a team or as individuals. They must look for needs and opportunities and respond to them by developing a range of ideas and making products and systems. They combine practical skills with knowledge, skills and understanding and become aware of industrial practices. Throughout technological activities students reflect on and evaluate existing products from the past and present.
