Design and Technology

Intent/What we aim to do through our Design and Technology Curriculum

At St Anne’s Catholic Primary School, through the provision of our Design and Technology Curriculum, it is our aim for pupils to learn to:

develop the creative, technical and practical expertise needed to perform everyday tasks confidently and to participate successfully in an increasingly technological world
build and apply a repertoire of knowledge, understanding and skills in order to design and make high-quality prototypes and products for a wide range of users

critique, evaluate and test their ideas and products and the work of others
understand and apply the principles of nutrition and learn how to cook.

In addition, at St Anne’s Catholic Primary School, through the provision of Design and Technology based knowledge, skills, experiences and opportunities, it is our aim for all pupils to:

develop their own identities
become well-rounded
help make the world a better place
feel safe and confident to explore as well as contribute and take risks
strive for excellence
develop inquisitive minds and become self-motivated learners
develop a lifelong love of learning

Adaptations are made to DT lessons to ensure that all children are able to access the curriculum and are not disadvantaged by Special Educational Needs or Disability.

Implementation/How we teach Design and Technology

Please find below three progression grids, which details the Design and Technology knowledge and skills that all pupils should acquire as they progress from Nursery through to Year 6.

Please find below the knowledge organisers that children are given at the start of each new Design and Technology unit being taught. A knowledge organiser is a single sheet of paper that lists all of the important facts that pupils should know by the end of a unit of work.
