Intent

We are passionate about the way in which the world is using technology and our lessons have the following aims:

• For students to develop their creativity and practical skills that can help them move forward in everyday life
• For students to develop cross curricular skills with English, Maths and Science
• Through mini projects, students will understand different cultures, religions, and the environmental impact that design and technology have on the world
• To encourage students to see where the work they do in technology works in the wider world

For our food lessons, we aim to ensure that all the students:

• Develop an understanding of the different nutrients and how to live a healthy lifestyle
• Develop a range of cooking skills that students can use later on in life
• Understand how to work safely in a busy environment
• Develop students’ confidence in following instructions to create a full product
