Curriculum Intent
To build curious minds able to think through a problem in order to create products using the design, make and evaluate model.
Throughout the curriculum, children will be inspired by engineers, designers, chefs and architects to enable and encourage them to create a range of structures, mechanisms, textiles, electrical systems and food products with a real-life purpose.
