Textiles

Curriculum

Overview

Textiles is an inspiring practical subject where you apply knowledge from a range of subjects such as Maths, Science, Geography and Art to design and make products to improve the world around you.

Our vision is that Textiles should be accessible to all, regardless of gender and we want to move away from stereotypes about who can succeed in Textiles and why the subject is important to us all. Textiles encompasses a wide range of products not just clothing and an awareness of sustainability and the impact of textiles on the world including new and emerging technologies and designer influences is as important as making skills.

We strive to equip students not just with a range of practical skills but with invaluable life skills such as identifying and solving design problems, creative thinking, problem solving, increased independence, research and analytical skills..
