Course detailsIntroduction

This is an opportunity for teachers to explore dye sublimation and the use of plastic materials in a project that would complement KS3 or KS4 courses.

Teaching resources will be distributed at the session which could then be adapted to meet your local needs.

We have a dye sublimation printer and heat press which could be loaned if you don’t have access to one in your school to allow you to explore its potential.
