The take up of Design & Technology as a GCSE subject in schools is plummeting. It's the tip of an iceberg; in a rapidly changing world which demands creative and ingenious responses, the fertile connections between designing, making, engineering, technology and the sciences are consistently undervalued and sidelined in our schools.

This is one of a set of short films documenting a 'Think Ahead Tank' convened by FixEd in autumn 2019 in which 20 people, from graduates to high-profile leaders and educators, from organisations as varied as the V&A museum, the Royal Academy of Engineering, Google, the Raspberry Pi Foundation and multiple schools, came together to explore the issues and impacts.
