Design and Technology

Construct your world, innovate for the future

At Woodlands, DT will provide children with a real-life context for learning. We want to allow children to aspire to be more through creating opportunities for them in the wider world. Through the DT curriculum, children will be inspired by engineers, designers, chefs and architects to enable them to create a range of structures, mechanisms, textiles, electrical systems and food products with a real-life purpose.  These experiences will offer children the opportunity to experience a wide variety of jobs and perhaps inspire their future choices.
