Design & Technology

So that our children get a well planned and sequenced learning experience in D&T, we have invested in the Kapow DT scheme of work giving a logical progression of knowledge and skills over the primary years.

Kapow uses the National Curriculum as its source for the progression in skills over time so that when our children leave us in Year 6, they are ready for the next step in their education at secondary school.

What is appropriate challenge in D&T?

Read through our skills progression to see how the complexity of challenge within learning increases as our children get  older.

Each of our units have a core set of knowledge which we expect our children to learn and remember. This knowledge is taken forward to support new learning in subsequent years. 

We use the National Curriculum to guide progression in skills over time so that when our children leave us in Year 6, they are ready for the next step in their education at secondary school.
