It is the aim of the Technology Department to provide a programme of study that offers opportunities for children to:

  • Develop their designing and making skills
  • Develop knowledge and understanding
  • Develop their capability to create high quality products through combining their designing and making skills with knowledge and understanding
  • Nurture creativity and innovation through designing and making
  • Develop an understanding of the technological processes, products and their manufacture
  • Ensure progression is achieved as the pupils move through the school

This is achieved through projects which last approximately one term, however in the later years projects may take two terms.
