Design & Technology

Our Design & Technology (DT) curriculum is designed to empower pupils with the skills and knowledge required to solve problems to support a sustainable future. We want pupils studying DT to apply their knowledge and skills of design and manufacturing principles to produce sustainable products.

Food Preparation and Nutrition

Our Food Technology curriculum enables pupils to develop a deep understanding of health, diet, culinary skills and ethical food resourcing. This will allow them to develop the key problem-solving skills required to create and analyse high-quality, healthy dishes.
