Design and Technology (DT)
"Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes.
Design is knowing which ones to keep."
- Scott Adams
Curriculum Design
Please see below for information about the design, rationale and priorities of our DT curriculum.
Progression Framework
We have developed our curriculum based on the Kapow Scheme of Learning. This has been adapted around our context in line with advice from experts in the field. The following document demonstrates how this is sequenced to allow pupils to progress and deepen their learning year on year.
Further details about DT in EYFS can be found in the Expressive Arts and Design area of our EYFS curriculum plan. There is also detail on the coverage from Kapow units in the document above.
Rolling Programme
We organise the curriculum around a rolling programme in which learning in DT complements Art (and vice-versa) - please see below.
