D+T Curriculum Intent

At TKS, we believe the study of D+T is vital in empowering learners to shape their futures and impact the world. Rooted in high aspirations, our curriculum cultivates curious and ambitious learners.

We aim to create a learning environment where academic achievement is complemented by holistic development. Central to our approach is prioritising safety, ensuring learners feel secure as they explore, experiment, and innovate.

Compassion underpins our values, teaching students to respect diverse perspectives and needs. We foster a culture of inclusivity and respect, where every voice is valued and celebrated equally.

Our curriculum area plays a pivotal role within the school community by instilling essential skills and knowledge that are both practical and future focused. Design and Technology not only equips students with technical proficiency but also fosters creativity, problem-solving abilities, and critical thinking-skills vital for success in the modern world.

Aligned with the whole school intent, our curriculum emphasises the core values of ready, respect, safe and compassion. By integrating these values into our teaching practices and learning outcomes, we ensure that students not only excel academically but also develop into well-rounded individuals who contribute positively to their communities.

Ultimately, our goal is to nurture learners who are not only proficient in their field but also empowered to make meaningful contributions to society. Through a curriculum that promotes innovation, inclusivity, and ethical responsibility, we prepare students to navigate challenges, seize opportunities, and drive positive change in the world.
