At St Mary Magdalene's, our Design & Technology curriculum develops creative thinkers, problem-solvers and innovators. Children learn how to design, make and evaluate products for real purposes, applying skills from across the curriculum including science, mathematics, computing and art.

Through practical, hands-on projects, pupils develop their understanding of mechanisms, structures, textiles, food and nutrition, and electrical systems. They are encouraged to take risks, learn from mistakes and refine their ideas through the design process.

We aim to equip children with the knowledge, skills and resilience needed to become confident designers who can think creatively and respond to challenges in an increasingly technological world.
