Our Design Technology
Similarly to Art and Design, Design and Technology (DT) is taught both discretely and as part of our thematic approach to learning. Within our Learning Adventure each half term, our pupils have the opportunity to learn, practice and consolidate key skills within DT doing so in a cross-curricular, contextual way. Our children also develop their knowledge of DT through exploring and learning about how design and technology has evolved and changed over history. As well as the embedded, thematic approach to learning, children also engage in a focus DT lessons, whereby each class has a focus area e.g. vehicles that they spend their lessons investigating, planning, designing and evaluating their own piece of work. Throughout the year, our children also engage in projects based around food and nutrition.
