Engineering

Welcome to Engineering!

Engineering (BTEC) provides a broad basis of study for the engineering sector, and is suitable for students applying for apprenticeships or, when combined with A-level courses such as Maths and Physics, further study at university.

Topics covered:

• Mechanical engineering systems and components

• The process of engineering design

• The relevance and role that manufacturing processes and systems have in the production of multiple components.

Entry requirements

  • Grade 5 in Maths
  • Grade 5 in Physics or Combined Sciences
  • A positive attitude to learning evidenced by a school report

We appreciate not all students have the opportunity to study engineering at GCSE therefore do not require it for this course
