At Morecambe Bay Primary, our Design and Technology curriculum encourages children to think creatively, solve problems, and design for purpose. We believe every child can be an inventor, maker, and innovator, using DT as a way to understand and shape the world around them.
Through a high-quality, inclusive DT curriculum (adapted from Kapow Primary), pupils are empowered to:
-
Develop creativity, resilience, and problem-solving through practical, hands-on learning.
-
Apply knowledge from science, maths, computing, and art to design and make functional, appealing products.
-
Understand the process of design–make–evaluate, building technical competence and independence.
-
Learn essential cooking and nutrition skills, preparing them for healthy, independent living.
-
Appreciate how design and technology impacts everyday life, communities, and the environment.
Our curriculum builds progressively from EYFS to Year 6, underpinned by the National Curriculum and Morecambe Bay’s topic-based approach.
