At Whiteheath, we approach Design and Technology teaching following the themes as set out in The National Curriculum: Design, Make and Evaluate. 

We want our children to be inspired to design and create products which excite them and are created to serve a purpose.  We allow children the freedom to explore and use a variety of materials and processes to capture their imagination and creative flair. 

Throughout KS2, children are taught progressive skills in the three areas of design make and evaluate.  Lessons are taught as themed days across the year - D&T days allow the children to be immersed in the designing, making and evaluating processes.
