Department Overview
Information Technology is the beating heart of the modern world. We aim to equip young people with the knowledge, understanding and skills they need to design and make effective digital products for others to use.
ICT enables young people to use digital tools as a means of expression to inform, persuade and entertain.
We aim to foster young people’s creativity and develop their independent learning skills.
