Our goal for Design and Technology education is that children are able to apply their knowledge, experience, creativity and practical skills and design solutions to real-life problems. This is taught through our gems (big ideas) of:

Our design and technology curriculum at Hintlesham and Chattisham CofE School, has been designed to give children a high-quality Design and Technology education. The curriculum enables the children to learn, apply and develop skills that support the design process, the making process and evaluating a design. Children draw links with other disciplines such as mathematics, science, engineering, computing and art. Learning is constantly supported by the use of technical vocabulary to enable the children to reflect effectively on their work and the skills they have learnt.

Design and Creativity - Children will use inspiration, creativity and experimentation to design new products.

Technical and Practical Skills - Children will build knowledge and confidence of specific skills and apply these to creations.

Problem Solving and Evaluation - Children will reflect on existing products and materials, work through problems they face in the process and use their designs to solve problems in the real world.
