Design & Technology at Thursby Primary School

At Thursby Primary School, our design and technology curriculum is crafted with the intent to ignite a passion for innovation and creative problem-solving in every pupil. We strive to provide them with a comprehensive toolkit of knowledge, skills and understanding necessary to design, develop, and produce high-quality prototypes and products that cater to a diverse range of users and contexts. Central to our intent is the cultivation of an innovative mindset, encouraging pupils to think critically, experiment fearlessly, and appreciate the transformative impact of design and technology on our global community. We aim to empower pupils to see themselves as creators and changemakers, ready to tackle future challenges with ingenuity and resilience.
