Our Design Technology sessions are linked with our themes. Our themes and the subjects that surround Design Technology give context to the projects that the children participate in. Our broad and exciting curriculum lends itself to rich opportunities for a range of interesting projects that always involve developing a practical skill which is appropriate for the age of the children. The children’s Design Technology work is recorded in their DT books and these continue with them as they progress through the school. This work will be represented as mind maps, collages, research, initial designs, amended designs, photographs of the making process and final product, surveys and evaluations. Teachers formatively assess work at each stage of the process and give instant feedback throughout lessons. Children share their learning with parents and the local community through book look afternoons.
