Design and technology is an inspiring, rigorous and practical subject. Using creativity and imagination, pupils design and make products that solve real and relevant problems within a variety of contexts, considering their own and others’ needs, wants and values. Throughout a unit of work, which is taught in a block over 2 to 3 weeks, pupils research and produce a written outcome. They then experiment with techniques and design ideas. They then pick an idea to work on a final outcome, which is evaluated upon completion. STEM projects are also undertaken with external professionals.
