Design and Technology is a popular subject at the Robert Barclay Academy. This is a very exciting time to join a well-equipped and experienced department with state of the art facilities. We are committed to developing young, ambitious designers of the future, who are given opportunities to explore different design and making techniques. Our classrooms include 21st century technology such as laser cutters, 3D printers and a computer suite. As well as this we have a fully equipped metal workshop, with a well-resourced multi-material classroom to compliment it.
In March 2023, Ofsted judged the school to be ‘Good’ in all areas. As part of this Ofsted inspection, the parents were effervescent of their praise for the school (see Ofsted Parent View). We are a school on the rise and as result of our rapidly improving reputation, the school is expanding due to increased pupil numbers.
Robert Barclay Academy is part of the very successful Scholars’ Education Trust creating a formal link with Sir John Lawes School (OFSTED Outstanding). We offer an innovative induction programme and professional development programme both at Robert Barclay Academy and across the Trust, recognising that our staff are the key to our success.
