The Welwyn Hatfield Crime Prevention Panel and the Design and Technology Team at Wheathampstead have joined together for the Hertfordshire Crime Prevention Challenge 2003-2004.

The challenge is aimed at providing Key Stage 4 Design and Technology students with opportunity to design and make a solution to a real situation, problem or need, set by a real organisation as a part of their GCSE Coursework. The Hertfordshire Crime Prevention Challenge has been specifically designed to form a part of the students coursework whilst giving them the added enrichment provided by competition. Students wishing to take part in the project are invited to design and make a security device that will protect a building; a means of transport or an item of personal property, or show how design changes could improve the security of an existing part of the built environment such as an area of a school, a restaurant or a shop.
