Design and Technology at Malvern Parish

At Malvern Parish our vision is for all children and adults to become aware of their God given gifts so they can flourish as individuals, achieve academically and build firm foundations for the future.

The teaching of Design and Technology at Malvern Parish CE Primary School aims to give children the opportunity to use their God given gifts of creativity and imagination to design, make and evaluate products that solve real and relevant problems within a variety of contexts. The practical nature of Design and Technology means that they will be exposed to a broad variety of skills and will have the opportunity to flourish by using a wide range of tools and techniques.

Children will be encouraged to consider their own and others’ needs, wants and values during the design process to create products that have an impact on daily life and the wider world. They will draw on other areas of the curriculum such as mathematics, science, computing, RE and art to support projects in textiles, woodwork, electronics and cookery.

As the pupils progress through our school, they will learn to take risks, become resourceful, innovative, enterprising and capable of participating successfully in an increasingly technological world in the future.
