Design and Technology

Our Design and Technology (DT) curriculum aims to give children the practical skills, knowledge, creativity and understanding they need to design, make and evaluate products which solve real and relevant problems. Children use their imagination and problem-solving skills to solve practical problems in different contexts, considering their own and others’ needs, wants and values. Children learn to work co-operatively in a team.

Starting in the Early Years, our curriculum provides rich opportunities to explore materials, tools, construction and modelling. Our Design and Technology curriculum lays the foundations for future study and the development of the practical skills including an introduction to basic sewing, cooking and woodwork.
