The aim of Textiles is to develop confidence and proficiency in the design, production and evaluation of textile items. Students will actively engage in learning about the properties and performance of textiles, textile design and the role of textiles in society.
Textile Technology provides students with a broad knowledge of the properties, performance and uses of textiles in which fabrics, coloration, yarns and fibres are explored. Project work that includes investigation and experimentation will enable students to discriminate in their choices of textiles for particular uses. Students will document their design ideas and use contemporary technology in their project work.
