So that our children get a well planned and sequenced learning experience in D&T, we have invested in the Kapow DT scheme of work giving a logical progression of knowledge and skills over the primary years.
Kapow uses the National Curriculum as its source for the progression in skills over time so that when our children leave us in Year 6, they are ready for the next step in their education at secondary school.
What topics will children learn about?
Click through to our curriculum map to see each of the units of work your child will learn each year in Design and Technology.
Skills Progression Document
Read through our skills progression to see how the complexity of challenge within learning increases as our children get older.
Kapow Scheme of work
Each of our units have a core set of knowledge which we expect our children to learn and remember. This knowledge is taken forward to support new learning in subsequent years.
