      I have been employed to launch and introduce Design & Technology at John Lyon. We are housed in a brand new refurbished room with a range of CAM machines. We have opted for the Cambridge IGCSE course which affords us a number of freedoms. Owe are in the process of creating a bespoke course for our students, revamping all the SOW as there was literally nothing to start off with. Having a blank canvas is a wonderful but challenging opportunity. This year we will also launch Greenpower and hope to race our car for the first time. Show less
