Design and Technology

Design and Technology in primary schools develops children’s skills and knowledge in design, structures, mechanisms, electrical control and a range of materials, including food. It encourages children's creativity and encourages them to think about important issues.

At Shoscombe we teach DT in the context of our topics enabling our children to learn and apply their DT skills in a fun and meaningful way.
