Design and Technology

Intent

At Weedon Bec, our Design and Technology lessons are fully inclusive for all children. Our aim is to provide a broad, balanced and progressive curriculum whilst fulfilling the knowledge, understanding and skill requirements of the National Curriculum. The children are taught through a broad range of practical experiences to create innovative designs, which solve real and relevant problems within a variety of different contexts.We also aim for our children to become risk takers, whilst becoming resourceful, innovative and enterprising citizens through evaluation of past and present design and technology. We encourage children to think about how past and present designs affect and shape the world in which we live. Our children are inspired to become the next generation of innovators and think about ways in which design and technology can continually be improved and developed – including becoming more sustainable.
