In IT students can utilise their time to engage in fun activities, catch-up on homework, extend their class studies or experience virtual reality by using the VR headsets.

Technology Club allows pupils to pursue their interest in Design and Technology and hone their practical skills using our fully equipped workshops or CAD/CAM equipment. Students access a range of advanced equipment, such as the laser cutter and vinyl cutter to produce products using a range of different engineering skills.
