Growing and Achieving Together

in Design and Technology

In DT, we take our children on a journey that is engaging, exciting and empowering for all.

What is Design and Technology?

"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

"Technology makes possibilities. Design makes solutions."

John Maeda

At Sandiway Primary School:

Engage

We provide opportunity for all pupils to explore their own creative, technical and practical expertise (and that of others) to then make products that solve real and relevant problems. 

Excite

We develop all pupils’ interest and enjoyment of DT, helping children understand how DT education makes an essential contribution to creativity, culture, wealth and well-being of the nation.

Empower

We ensure pupils experience a progressive curriculum that enables them to design, make and evaluate products using their technical knowledge and understanding of cooking and nutrition.
