Design Technology (DT) is a rigorous, practical and inspiring subject.

Westwood with Iford’s broad and balanced curriculum provides children the opportunity to learn about the application of DT in the wider community, helping them understanding the relevant problems within occupations such as chefs, architects, designers and engineers.

Children are given opportunities to be curious about historical and cultural inventors and inventions; ask questions that have context in the present day; acquire new knowledge and develop skills which then provide the confidence to be persistent in their own innovations and to become more reflective in their evaluations of their own designs.
