Design Technology

Design Technology

At Wynyard, we aim to allow children to unlock their potential in Design Technology as we inspire them to use their creativity to design and bring their ideas to life. Our DT curriculum has been designed and logically sequenced to allow children to build upon their skills as they progress through school. DT is a rigorous, inspiring and practical subject, and at Wynyard, we encourage our children to take risks and be resourceful throughout their DT journey in school. We are passionate about developing future global citizens, and pupils will be supported to explore design and technology of the past, present and future, learning about the inspiring work of a variety of designers and makers. Pupils will investigate and ask questions in order to evaluate their own and others work enabling them to identify key strengths and areas for development when moving forward. 

Our key themes in Design Technology are mechanisms, materials, structures, food and nutrition. Our children develop a varied and deep understanding of each theme and are consistently guided towards achieving great outcomes.
