Design and Technology

Our Christian Vision is:

Learning Together, Following Jesus

Jesus said “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will have the light of life”

Our Design and Technology curriculum aims to:

  • Enable our pupils to be creative, resilient and resourceful learners.
  • Empower our pupils to explore the world around them to be respectful of different cultures and ways of life.
  • Give our children the courage and desire to be respectful, positive role models to their peers.

As a Christian school our Christian ethos and values are central to all we do. 

Design and Technology (DT)  at the Beacon develops children’s skills and knowledge in design, structures, mechanisms, electrical control, and a range of materials which includes food. DT encourages children's creativity and encourages them to think about a product's purpose and the process in which it takes to create a successful product.

DT gives children the opportunity to develop skills, knowledge and understanding of designing and making functional products. We feel it is vital to nurture creativity and innovation through design, and by exploring the designed and made world in which we all live and work.

DT allows children to add real life context to learning, combining skills learnt from other subjects such as Maths, English and Art and Design.
