Design and Technology

We want the children at Greenland to develop their imagination, their critical thinking and their understanding of the world around them through their love of design & technology.  We aim for our children to question and think innovatively about the world around them in order to design and develop their own products with a purpose in mind.  Design & technology requires children to draw on skills within mathematics, art and design, science and computing, allowing them to deepen their understanding and independence within all of these subject areas.  Pupils encounter risk and experience challenges through the design and making process, helping them to become more resilient.  Lessons are hands-on and engaging, with children having access to a wide range of resources and materials.  Design & technology encourages pupils to reflect, think critically and evaluate their work, allowing them to build upon their artistic skills.
