Design and Technology equips children to navigate the rapidly changing world of tomorrow. It fosters their independence and nurtures their creativity, turning them into adept problem-solvers, both individually and within a team. This discipline empowers them to recognize needs and opportunities and respond by generating a variety of ideas and creating products and systems. At Abbey Gates Primary School, the study of Design and Technology blends practical skills with an appreciation for aesthetic, social, and environmental concerns, as well as functionality and industry knowledge. This comprehensive approach enables students to contemplate and assess the influence of past and present technology, including its applications and impacts.
