D&T schemes of work
Free thinking in the classroom
We believe in a Design and Technology curriculum based on an iterative design process and relevant project-based learning, to engage students.
We have used our experience from the James Dyson Foundation schools project to develop a series of free schemes of work for all schools wanting to teach a project-led Design and Technology curriculum.
Schemes of work
Key Stage 3
Through these resources, students will learn how to take risks, be resourceful, be innovative and be enterprising. They will also learn about design engineering and begin to develop the skills needed to become an engineer.
Schemes of work
Key stage 4
An introduction to design engineering, these schemes of work have been mapped to the KS4 national curriculum. They are designed to simultaneously engage students creativity and imagination, whilst teaching technical skills.
Rethinking D&T
The project in action
Trialling this project-led curriculum with five schools in Bath led to a 37% increase in the number of students opting to take D&T at GCSE.
