Curriculum

Our Curriculum:

Design Technology aims to provide pupils with a well-rounded understanding and application of design, creativity, problem-solving, and technological literacy. Our intent is to cultivate a curiosity for innovation, develop practical skills, and foster an appreciation for the importance of design in everyday life. Through DT education, pupils should become independent, confident, and resourceful learners who understand the value of taking calculated risks and learn from their mistakes.

 

Using the objectives from the National Curriculum and Early Years Foundation Stage as our base, it is our aim to:

  • develop the creative, technical and practical expertise needed to perform everyday tasks confidently and to participate successfully in an increasingly technological world
  • build and apply a repertoire of knowledge, understanding and skills in order to design and make high-quality prototypes and products for a wide range of users
  • critique, evaluate and test their ideas and products and the work of others
  • understand and apply the principles of nutrition and learn how to cook.
