Design and Technology at St Breock
"Design is a funny word. Some people think design means how it looks. But of course, if you look deeper, it's really how it works." – Steve Jobs
At St Breock we value Design & Technology as an important part of the children’s right to a broad and balanced curriculum. All children participate in engaging and purposeful Design & Technology lessons where they exercise their creativity and develop the skills, knowledge and understanding of designing and making functional products.
Our curriculum aims to:
- Provide meaningful opportunities for children to work with a range of materials and tools.
- Develop the technical knowledge, understanding and skills to perform everyday tasks confidently.
- Build on the necessary skills to design, make and evaluate a range of products.
- Develop critical thinking and problem solving skills to critique, test, evaluate and improve their work.
- Inspire pupils through studying the work of pioneering designers.
