Design Technology

At Christ the King Catholic and CofE Primary School, our Christian faith underpins every aspect of the curriculum and is at the centre of our learning.  Children are actively encouraged to ‘Build God’s Kingdom’.

Intent

Design and Technology is an inspiring and practical subject. It offers encouragement for children to learn to think and intervene creatively to solve problems both as individuals and as members of a team. Here at Christ the King, we encourage children to use their creativity and imagination, to design and make products that solve real and relevant problems within a variety of contexts, considering their own and others’ needs, wants and values. Wherever possible we aim to link work to other areas such as mathematics, science, computing and art. The children are also given opportunities to reflect upon and evaluate past and present design technology, its uses and its effectiveness and are encouraged to become innovators and risk-takers.
