The essence of Design and Technology is the application of skills and knowledge to solve problems, which arise from the needs of people and society.

In the Primary School Design and Technology has an educational foundation that develops both social and practical skills. Students use a range of resistant materials and start to develop knowledge of electronics, components and processes.

In the Secondary School, students are introduced to a range of projects, each designed to develop particular skills from designing manufacturing processes, graphics, electronics, mechanisms and control.

Year 10 students can opt for a range of IGCSE Technology courses,  and will undertake, as part of their studies, a major project in an area of their choice. Senior Students can study International Baccalaureate Technology at Standard and Higher levels.

The Technology facilities at Patana are extensive, with fully equipped workshops which incorporate modern processes, such as computer control, control and circuit board production, as well as more traditional equipment.

Mission Statement "Design and Technology at Bangkok Patana, teaches children the equal importance of the design, making and evaluation processes. We expect our children to develop these skills at an appropriately challenging level, using a wide range of tools, materials and components in their work."
