On Monday 8th October, our year 9 design technologists had the opportunity to visit the Design Museum in London as part of an international competition they are taking part in called Design Ventura. The competition involves schools designing and prototyping a product that solves a design problem and which is suitable for visitors of the design museum. The winning school gets their product manufactured and sold in the Design Museum’s shop… an incredible opportunity.

The students took part in workshops lead by industry professionals in graphic and sustainable design solutions with representatives from Deutsche Bank, the collaborative sponsor of the competition. Following the workshops, pupils were able to look around the exhibits to see how design has shaped everything from our built environment to the everyday objects, all of which have been party to the rigorous design process.

As Harrow Way Year 11 students face their biggest school challenge to date, they were treated to some words of wisdom from former students now successfully in the world of work, at college or off to university. The school was visited by ten special guest speakers who shared their experiences in order to inspire and motivate the next generation preparing for their next life choices.

Commenting on the day which is part of the school’s new ambitious careers programme Deputy Headteacher Nicola Pearce said: “It was a very special day and it was very rewarding to see the huge sense of pride our former students had to be back sharing their experiences with the current Year 11. And because they have literally stood in the same shoes, their powerful messages were really well received. We had former students in various stages of their education, training and career so were able to demonstrate to students that all the work and effort they put in now will reap significant rewards.” Read more…
