Design and Technology

A high proportion of students take Design and Technology as an A-level subject and, as a result, leave for Higher Education with a high level of practical and problem solving skills. The Design and Technology A-level course is the perfect option for those students who enjoy the freedom to come up with their own creative ideas and the tools and opportunity to bring them to life.

At Bridgewater School, we use the Eduqas examination board which allows Sixth Form students to freely create their own design problems and solutions without limitations.

Design and Technology is a popular A-level and can be used towards a career within the design, engineering, construction or creative industry.

Bridgewater will not only help you to reach your goals, it will enable you to exceed them.
