Design and Technology

Design and Technology at Forest Glade Primary School aims to encourage interest in and enjoyment of the designing and making process.  We want to give children an understanding of how to research into different products, the designing process – including testing ideas – and then making and evaluating their product.

This is achieved through a range of learning opportunities and experiences delivered through an enquiry approach as a curriculum enhancer.  Children learn key knowledge and are encouraged to develop the skills of a designer such as how to strengthen the materials they use and how to evaluate the effectiveness of their product.

A year 6 designer can:

  • Talk about how they design a project.
  • Explain how they choose the materials and tools they used in a project.
  • Explain why their project was good and what they could have done to make it better.
  • Describe food that they have made and how they did it.
