Growing Stronger Together in God's Love

We want children to end their time at All Saints with a range of skills in all the different elements of Design and Technology. They should have an awareness of designers in our world and be given the opportunity to explore and experiment with designs of their own. Most importantly, we want children to have the confidence to take risks.

Pupil voice interviews show that the children enjoy D&T and take pride in the work that they produce. We are currently looking at the development of DT passports to support and monitor children’s assessment. These passports are kept as the children progress through the school so that we can track their progress over the years.

Progress and attainment are measured against National Curriculum expectations. These are informed by teacher, peer and self-assessment and evaluations. Children are encouraged to evaluate their product at the end of each D&T unit. We support and encourage children to use technical language when evaluating their own or other people’s work.
