Celebrating Success in D&T at Walton
Dear Parents, Carers and Students
During the last few weeks the Design and Technology department have been seeing some outstanding design drawings and practical work from our students. The students have been creative and innovative using a variety of materials they have available at home. We wanted to celebrate their achievements as widely as we could and so have chosen to launch our DT department blog. This has been created and developed by Mrs White and I am personally very grateful for all her hard work.
This is the work displayed from May we are going to release new work monthly and share it with you – it’s fantastic to see how talented our youngsters are.
Yours Ms Emma Hillier
Head of Design and Technology

This means that all students must have their phones switched off, in their bags, at all times whilst on the school site, or risk confiscation of the device.
The full policy can be found here.
Many thanks for your support in assisting us to implement this policy, which we hope will benefit students and staff both academically and pasto
