A Brighter Future for Everyone
Curriculum Intent
At Claremont, we believe that Design and Technology has the ability to help our children design and build a better future for themselves and others in a rapidly changing world by becoming informed consumers and future innovators.
Our Design and Technology curriculum will develop imaginative thinking and creative problem solving individually and as part of a team. It will enable children to talk about what they like and dislike when designing and making. Children will be able to talk about how things work, and to draw and model their ideas. Throughout this curriculum, children will be encouraged to select appropriate tools and techniques for making a product, including ICT, whilst following safe procedures. Children will combine practical skills with an understanding of social, design and environmental issues as well as understanding industrial practices and functionality. We value the importance of children developing their evaluation skills through use of present and past technology, its uses and its impact on society and the world.
