· To allow all pupils to gain the confidence and skills to embrace and use technologies now and in the future.
· To allow all pupils to evaluate technological processes and products critically and constructively, taking account of cultural, ethical, environmental and economic factors.
· To allow all pupils to experience work-related learning and for some, establish the foundation for more advanced learning and careers in the technologies.
· To aid pupils in developing personal attributes and to be aware of their influences on their peers.
