Summary

This course work requires students to work in "cells" ie skilled groups working on behalf of the team. To design the product pupils will research, draw it, use modifications on CAD and investigate materials used. Then produce a batch product of high quality costed appropriately.

Y10 pupils gave a presentation of their product to a local manufacturer - Sortex to whom the School was grateful for valuable feedback and an opportunity to key processes as well as importance of health and safety.

An example of a good vocational visit organised by NEBP between between Cumberland School and Sortex a local manufacturer. After a series of visits to Sortex the pupils from Cumberland return to demonstrate how they used many of the latest manufacturing techniques observed, to manufacture a clock radio. Pupils can be seen giving a presentation to the MD Bruno Kilshaw of Sortex.
