Design Technology

How is Design Technology a sacred subject?

Design and Technology incorporates innovative creativity and risk-taking leading to a high level of resourcefulness enabling learners to become channels of divine inspiration. Design Technology calls forth imagination, resourcefulness and creativity whilst drawing on a wide variety of complementary disciplines. Design Technology challenges students to engage with issues of inclusion, stewardship, the dignity of the human person and ecology. 

At St Rose's Infants and St Cuthbert Mayne Juniors, our carefully planned and sequenced curriculum develops children’s skills, knowledge and understanding across the core strands of structures, mechanisms, electrical systems, cooking, textiles, and the digital world. This document outlines the development of core skills and technical knowledge for clear, measurable progression.
