Big Bangs and damp squibs, Design and technology has been in the news a lot over the last couple of days - or should I say, design and technology should have been in the news a lot!

No mention of the role of D&T or Computing, even though the CBI supported our campaign to reject and revise...

Wayne Hemingway, MBE, Founder of Hemingway Design

Founder of Hemingway Design, Wayne Hemingway, MBE, Wayne was born in 1961 and grew up in Morecambe, a typical British seaside town.
