Technology
Year 7
Technology at Year 7 provides learners with the opportunity to design, test and develop their own technological outcomes in a range of contexts, including digital technologies, materials technology, design and visual communication and food technology. These contexts are combined to make a valuable, exciting and in-depth learning experience.
