A-Level in Engineering

This course is ideal for students looking for a career in Engineering. Combined with Mathematics or Physics, it gives students an extensive understanding of the subject. Combined with Design and Technology, it provides an excellent springboard for a range of careers.

Learning about Engineering and Design and Technology at A level strengthens learners’ critical thinking and problem solving skills within a creative environment. It enables them to develop and make prototypes/products that solve real-world problems whilst considering their own and others’ needs, wants, aspirations and values. This qualification requires learners to identify market needs and opportunities for new products, initiate and develop design solutions, and make and test prototypes/products. Learners will acquire subject knowledge in Engineering and Design and Technology, including how a product can be developed through the stages of prototyping, realisation and commercial manufacture.

To be confirmed - will be a combination of examination and NEA (non-exam assessment)
