# Design and Technology

## Design and Technology

In Shirley Schools children foremost have the opportunity to implement their own ideas into their DT learning. Children are given opportunities to expand their understanding of skills and techniques, growing in confidence to create their own design and understanding the importance it was fulfilling a purpose. They are encouraged to question and adapt at any opportunity always keeping the purpose in mind. They explore, investigate, design, edit and evaluate to produce something of their very own.
