Design and Technology
In Design and Technology, children work towards making a product that has a clear purpose and use, before evaluating their effectiveness. Examples have included fairground rides, packaging boxes and moving CAMs. Linked with computing, children will also begin to learn how to use programmable controller kits during their time at Queen’s Park Academy. As well as this, children will have the opportunity to undertake cookery and textiles lessons during every school year. In these lessons, they will build on the skills from previous years, in order to develop a range of cookery skills and sewing techniques.
