Bird Brain

The time for submitting final GCSE design Technology projects was getting close.

The group had been building their chosen and approved designs for many months.

Some of these projects were rather large and storage space was at a premium.  As a result of this lack of space it was agreed that several components could be taken home for assembly prior to bringing in the completed project.

On deadline day many parents helped to transport the very impressive constructions into school which were then to be assessed by DT staff together with an external examiner. 

One particular bulky submission was a very commendable bird table clearly worthy of a top grade.

It would certainly have been awarded that accolade until, upon closer inspection, we noticed that a price tag showing the garden centre were it was purchased was evident.

Nice try but …
