Project Outline
 
Welcome to information about the Crossover project. Within this section you will find all the resources you need to run a successful, collaborative D&T project.

In brief, one site designs and builds a bridge and another site designs and builds a buggy to cross the bridge. Both are designed and built to a pre defined specification and the work is supported with the use of videos and worksheets available on this site.

In order for a successful project it is vital that both sites are in close communication. In past years schools in different authorities have used e-mail and video conferencing to ensure that the bridge will take the buggy and vice versa. The culmination of many of these collaborations has been a real meeting of students to celebrate the project's completion.
