Design and Technology in Action

    DT subject lead

At Brunton we aim to develop creative, technical and practical skills through an engaging design and technology curriculum.

 We teach the children to:

  • Design purposeful products, make and evaluate them using their own initiative and think about how to improve them.
  • Develop their practical skills such as cutting, shaping and joining using the appropriate tools.
  • Investigate relevant designers and use them as inspiration
  • Learn the basics of cooking, nutrition and a healthy lifestyle
  • Talk about their likes and dislikes confidently
 

We encourage children to think like designers / engineers, be imaginative and decisive. As they progress through the school, our curriculum will enable them to become more confident and independent throughout the design and making process.
