What are the aims of our Design and Technology curriculum?
At Tottington Primary School we are passionate about promoting high standards of design tech understanding. Through combining the Early Years and National Curriculum with our TPS core values, our ambitious Design and Technology curriculum equips all our children with the necessary skills in the design field.
By the time they leave TPS, our children will have developed a sound understanding of the process of design, re-evaluation, self-assessment, purpose and the importance of innovation. They will associate DT with the task of problem solving through using resources, including digital technology, accurately and in an imaginative and creative way. Having been faced with a plethora of design challenges, they will have made a variety of products, which serve a real purpose. Vital knowledge and skills will be acquired, by the children, for the next stage of their learning journey.
Through our well-planned, and sequenced Design and Technology curriculum our children acquire the vital knowledge and skills required for the next stage of their learning journey and on into adulthood. This enables the children of Tottington Primary School to become successful, active and positive members of their local community and wider world.
