Design & Technology
At Haughmond Schools, we aim to teach children to become problem-solvers equipping them with the skills to think creatively about solutions. We provide clear progression through a well-planned and meaningfully sequenced D&T curriculum which builds on knowledge effectively and encourages independence, innovation and creativity. Through the acquisition of substantive and disciplinary knowledge, we intend to develop children’s creative, technical and imaginative thinking so that they can design, make and evaluate purposeful and functional products for a range of users.
Our curriculum offer ensures that children take part in three D&T projects every year in the following areas:
Key Stage One: Structures, Mechanisms, Textiles and Cooking & Nutrition
Key Stage Two: Structures, Mechanical Systems, Textiles, Cooking & Nutrition and Electrical Systems/Computing
All of these encompass a combination of the ‘design, make, evaluate process’ and focused practical tasks.
