Design and technology 

In D&T  children have the experiences to develop their creativity and imagination. We give children opportunities to work practically when designing and making products. We do this through:


Experience - Children develop a range of designing, making and evaluating skills across a range of contexts, inspired by real life designers and builders


Language - Children use a range technical vocabulary to plan, collaborate and evaluate their work


Challenge - Throughout their time in school children build on their prior experience, knowledge and skills


Physical development - Children are given regular opportunities to use tools and materials to build their own constructions


Developing independence - All children are given access to high quality learning in D&T
