Design and Technology
Design and Technology at our school empowers children to become creative problem-solvers, critical thinkers, and innovative makers. Through hands-on, meaningful projects, pupils explore the design process from research and idea generation to planning, making and evaluating. They learn how to design purposeful, high-quality products that meet real-life needs and are inspired by the work of others, both past and present, as well as the world around them.
Aims
