We aim to provide the best and most cost effective D&T materials on the market.
At only £120 for a school site licence, with free updates for the first year after purchase, this product is great value.

Our materials are designed to help teachers and students working on GCSE Design and Technology courses based on the specifications for OCR, AQA, WJEC and Edexcel
D&T: Product Design and D&T: Resistant Materials Technology courses. With support, the material can be used with KS3 students also.

The Design & Resistant Materials Technology CD/ download contains all the material found on our animation downloads, plus lots more, in one economical package. There are D&T notes, animations and hundreds of exercises, including design exercises, design analysis exercises and technology exercises. The material is ideal for class teaching, for homework, cover-work and for individual learning. The animations are particularly useful for interactive whiteboard teaching.
