Design and Technology Curriculum Statement

Intent

At Kingsmoor we believe that high-quality DT lessons will inspire children to think independently, innovatively and develop creative, procedural and technical understanding. Our DT curriculum provides children with opportunities to research, represent their ideas, explore and investigate and develop their ideas.  The children are taught to combine their designing and making skills with knowledge and understanding in order to design and make a product which they will then evaluate. Skills are taught progressively to ensure that all children are able to learn and practice in order to develop as they move through the school. Kingsmoor uses the Design and technology association projects on a page to support our planning and progressions across the school.
It is our aim to inspire the next generation of inventors!  To combine their mathematical/scientific and computing knowledge and be empowered with skills that will enable them to be proud of their finished products.  

As a Designer we will demonstrate:

  • ​Significant levels of originality and the willingness to take creative risks to produce innovative ideas and prototypes.
  • An excellent attitude to learning and independent working.
  • The ability to use time efficiently and work constructively and productively with others.
  • The ability to carry out thorough research, show initiative and ask questions to develop an exceptionally detailed knowledge of users’ needs.
  • The ability to act as responsible designers and makers, working ethically, using finite materials carefully and working safely.
  • A thorough knowledge of which tools, equipment and materials to use to make their products.
  • The ability to apply mathematical knowledge.
  • The ability to manage risks exceptionally well to manufacture products safely and hygienically.
  • A passion for the subject and knowledge of, up-to-date technological innovations in materials, products and systems.
