With world-class\nfacilities, expert leadership and multiple opportunities for learning beyond\nthe curriculum, it is no surprises that these departments consistent achieve\noutstanding results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The science\ndepartment is housed in 12 purpose built laboratories which each contain both a\nclassroom and practical area. Fully kitted out with interactive touch screens\nand Apple TV and iPads, these laboratories employ the latest technology to aid\nlearning. However, we also believe that practical experimentation is at the\nheart of Science and therefore there is a heavy emphasis on students completing\nexperiments themselves. We have dedicated technical staff on hand to facilitate\n\u2018hands-on\u2019 learning at every opportunity, which is supported by the six well-stocked\nprep rooms, brimming with cutting-edge data loggers and sensors, as well as\nmore traditional laboratory apparatus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Design\nTechnology &amp; Computing department occupies its own suite of computer rooms\nand workshops in the main senior school building. Facilities include\ntraditional woodwork machinery alongside computer-aided design and 3D printing\ncapabilities. Learning takes place both inside and outside the classroom with\nstudents given the opportunity to use the skills and knowledge gained in their\nlessons to compete in regional and global competitions. &nbsp;Recently teams from the Senior School have\ntravelled to the UAE and the World finals for the \u2018<strong><em>F1 in Schools Competition<\/em><\/strong>\u2019\nand the <strong>\u2018Land Rover 4&#215;4 in Schools\nCompetitions\u2019<\/strong>.
