Through the Design and Technology curriculum at Blaise Primary and Nursery School, children will have the opportunity to design, make and evaluate products. These products will be aimed at solving real and relevant problems within a variety of contexts, whilst considering the needs, wants and values of ourselves and others. Children will be afforded opportunities to take risks in their learning, develop their resourcefulness, and be innovative and enterprising as well as becoming increasingly ‘capable citizens.’ |
