--- title: "DT" url: "http://stpetersheysham.lancs.sch.uk/parents/our-curriculum/dt" school: "St. Peter's C of E Primary School" --- # Design Technology ### **Design and Technology at St Peter’s** At St Peter’s, we intend to establish a **Design and Technology curriculum that is inspiring, rigorous, and carefully sequenced**, equipping pupils with a wide range of practical skills. We follow the nationally recognised **Project on a Page** scheme, which provides a structured approach to teaching DT from EYFS through to Year 6. Our aim is for children to work innovatively to design and make purposeful products that solve real and relevant problems with a clear user in mind. We want pupils to have the confidence to make mistakes and develop resilience by solving problems that arise, whether they are working with **mechanisms, structures, food, textiles, or electrical systems**. Children are inspired by engineers, designers, and chefs, and we create strong cross-curricular links with **Maths, Science, Art and Design, Computing, Geography, History, and PSHE**. Through our DT provision, we intend for children to flourish—becoming **resourceful, enterprising, and ready for their next step of education.** When appropriate, we will include external visitors, allied professionals and local visits to enhance the learning. ### Design Technology DT Whole School Overview 77 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/st-peter-s-c-of-e-primary-school/files/documents/DT_Whole_School_Yearly_Overview.pdf) DT Progression of skills 287 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/st-peter-s-c-of-e-primary-school/files/documents/DT_Key_Learning_and_Progression_of_knowledge_and_skills_website_2023.pdf) ### Curriculum - [Our Curriculum](http://stpetersheysham.lancs.sch.uk/parents/our-curriculum) - [EYFS](http://stpetersheysham.lancs.sch.uk/parents/our-curriculum/eyfs) - [Phonics and Early Reading](http://stpetersheysham.lancs.sch.uk/parents/our-curriculum/phonics-and-early-reading) - [Art](http://stpetersheysham.lancs.sch.uk/parents/our-curriculum/art) - [Computing](http://stpetersheysham.lancs.sch.uk/parents/our-curriculum/computing) - [DT](http://stpetersheysham.lancs.sch.uk/parents/our-curriculum/dt) - [English](http://stpetersheysham.lancs.sch.uk/parents/our-curriculum/english) - [French](http://stpetersheysham.lancs.sch.uk/parents/our-curriculum/french) - [Geography](http://stpetersheysham.lancs.sch.uk/parents/our-curriculum/geography) - [History](http://stpetersheysham.lancs.sch.uk/parents/our-curriculum/history) - [Maths](http://stpetersheysham.lancs.sch.uk/parents/our-curriculum/maths) - [Music](http://stpetersheysham.lancs.sch.uk/parents/our-curriculum/music) - [PSHE](http://stpetersheysham.lancs.sch.uk/parents/our-curriculum/pshe) - [PE](http://stpetersheysham.lancs.sch.uk/parents/our-curriculum/pe) - [Religious Education](http://stpetersheysham.lancs.sch.uk/parents/our-curriculum/re-worship) - [Science](http://stpetersheysham.lancs.sch.uk/parents/our-curriculum/science) ![St. Peter's C of E Primary School](https://files.schudio.com/st-peter-s-c-of-e-primary-school/images/logo/Home_logo_(1)-st-peters.png) ### St. Peter's C of E Primary School School Road Heysham LA3 2RF 01524 852155 ### Chair of Governors Information - [Mr Matthew Entwistle](http://stpetersheysham.lancs.sch.uk/governors) - [Chairofgovernors@stpetersheysham.lancs.sch.uk](http://stpetersheysham.lancs.sch.uk/contact) ### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/heyshamstpetersprimary) - [X](https://twitter.com/StPetersCofEPri) © Copyright 2023–2026 St. Peter's C of E Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](http://stpetersheysham.lancs.sch.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
