St James' CE First School and Nursery Make Great Choices. Be Our Best.
Design and Technology
In DT, children become innovators and problem solvers.
Following a progressive cycle of designing, making, and evaluating, children build practical skills in electronics, structures, mechanisms, and nutrition. Our topic-based projects present real-world design briefs, requiring children to collaborate and critically evaluate their work.
DT actively teaches children how to make great choices regarding materials, safety, and functionality, inspiring them to be their best engineers and designers.
