At Marden Bridge we’re establishing a ‘hands on’ approach to Design and Technology

We try to ensure every pupil has the opportunity to produce quality finished products that can be taken home, stuck on the fridge or even tucked away in the loft to be found in 20 years time with happy memories attached to them.

Creativity and precision are sought after commodities, and we are developing a Design and Technology curriculum that is set up to deliver and enhance opportunities for these skills to improve across the four years pupils spend learning with us.

Pupils focus on (and are assessed on) four main areas:

• Designing
• Making
• Evaluating
• Technical Knowledge

These are achieved through a varied collection of mediums including textiles, resistant materials, electronics, Computer Assisted Design (CAD) and cookery.
