DESIGN AND TECNOLOGY STATEMENT OF INTENT:
At St. Ethelberts, we offer an inspiring and practical approach to our Design and Technology curriculum. This enables our children to develop a deeper understanding of technical and creative design in order to construct purposeful products. Children acquire a broad range of skills and knowledge to design, create and evaluate their ideas; whilst gaining an increased understanding of God’s world.
Our Design Technology curriculum incorporates knowledge from other curriculum areas such as Maths, Science, Computing and Art. Each year, children also build upon their knowledge of nutrition and basic cookery skills, applying principles of understanding the importance of a balanced and varied diet. There is a breadth of practical tasks offered to our children to prepare them for secondary education, as well as aiming to provide them with useful life skills.
Our Design Technology Subject Leaders are Miss Murphy and Mrs Messham.
