Design Technology

Design & Technology Intent Statement

Design & Technology (DT): DT encourages children to design, create, and problem-solve using practical skills and imagination.

At St Chad’s RC Primary, our Design and Technology curriculum is inspiring and aspirational, encouraging children to develop their creative thinking as a gift from God. With Christ at the centre of our learning, pupils are guided to use their creativity and imagination to design and make products that solve real and relevant problems in a variety of contexts.

Through DT, children will:

• Become innovative and independent thinkers.

• Use an iterative process to design, create, and improve their work.

• Evaluate their own creations and those of others with respect and resilience.

Our DT curriculum develops practical skills while promoting problem-solving, teamwork, and perseverance, helping children to grow as thoughtful and inventive learners.
