The de Ferrers Academy – Frog Blog

Following on from the success of our Young Designer KS3 voting website, we have now opened it up to Young Designers at KS4.

Four pieces of work are on display from the Young Designers who have each been assigned an anonymous number to make the voting fair. Every student at de Ferrers is invited to decide who deserves to be the Young Designer, so get voting.

You can access the voting centre by going into the VLE and clicking the Young Designer button under the “Subjects” section.

The Young Designer competition takes place every 10 weeks for all students in Year 8 and Year 9. At the end of each module, each Design and Technology teacher nominates someone in each class to be the Young Designer and that could be for any reason, it won’t necessarily be the piece of work with the highest level. When all the nominees are chosen, two from each year are selected and their work is shown to everyone else.

It’s up to the students to decide who deserves to be the Young Designer, so get voting. You can access the voting centre by going into the VLE and following the button under the “Subjects” section.
