Design and technology is a fun, engaging and practical subject that allows children of all ages and abilities to engage with the designed and made world. They learn how products and systems are designed and manufactured, how to make creative use of a variety of resources, how to critically evaluate and improve their designs and, in doing so, how to improve the world around them.
