Design and Technology (DT)<\/h2>

Our DT curriculum aims to equip children with the knowledge, skills and attitudes they need to become successful, innovative young designers and makers. By building on prior experience, children progressively develop technical skills and practical expertise.<\/p>

They are encouraged to think creatively, imaginatively and be ambitious in their design ideas. They are given opportunities to solve real and relevant problems within a variety of contexts, considering their own and others\u2019 needs, wants and values. They learn to recognise the importance of design and technology in the real world and its relevance in everyday life.<\/p>

They are given opportunities to learn about and be inspired by designs and designers past and present who have impacted on life across the world. Through the design, make, evaluate process, children are guided to develop skills of team work, communication, resilience and reflectiveness through problem solving.<\/p>

They learn to use knowledge and understanding from other curriculum areas including mathematical, scientific, computing and art skills, applying them in relevant and practical contexts. In this way, we aspire for our children to become articulate, dynamic thinkers able to approaching new challenges with confidence and enthusiasm.<\/p>
