Overview of Curriculum Subjects: Design & Technology

We teach a range of subjects in a similar way. Each of these subjects are taught as discrete subjects. This is because we are working on developing a child's schema in that subject. 

Please see our school curriculum model overview for more information. 

For each subject there are milestones. Milestone 1 is reached at the end of Year 2 and Milestone 2 is reached at the end of Year 4. 

We use mini-topics to continue to develop our understanding of key concepts within a milestone. During these mini-topics, we refer back to previous learning and make links to previous learning.

Throughout their time working towards a milestone, children are also progressing in their vocabulary.
