Design and Technology

In Design and Technology, children consider practical, real-life problems and resolve these through a ‘plan, do and review’ approach.  Working together, they have the opportunity to use a wide variety of materials and equipment as they collaborate on initial planning, testing and trialling their ideas, evaluating their designs and agreeing on the final answer to the challenge posed.

 

Each year a Science and Technology Challenge is open to all children, and year groups are invited to the exciting final heats of this popular competition.
