What is D&T? Options pack, This package of leaflets and posters is intended to support school D&T departments to help inform students, parents and others in the school and help make clear the value of studying D&T. In many schools, performance measures are squeezing the amount of choice pupils have with KS4 subjects. It’s also the case that D&T is often misunderstood, seen as ‘craft’ and not the sophisticated and comprehensive subject it is. To address this and support teachers and departments when promoting GCSE D
'Inspired by Industry' - Member Only Content, 'Inspired by Industry' has been produced with leading design and manufacturing companies to support all D&T teachers with a suite of free KS3 resources to use in the classroom. By working on real-life contexts and learning from industry experts, it allows teachers of D&T to potentially shift how they deliver elements of KS3 in a way that aligns with elements of KS4 and beyond, replicating how many organisations design, prototype and test. The additional curriculum support documents below will help you to deliver...
Materials Masterclass, Materials Masterclass with Zoe Laughlin View Masterclass here When covering materials science in D&T where else would you go but to Zoe Laughlin? In this Masterclass Zoe, in her own unique presentation style, takes students through some of her favourite core materials looking at their properties, any potential volatilities and demonstrating practical uses for these materials. This is not pretending to be a comprehensive run through all the materials that students will need knowledge of for the GCSE or A Level qualification, more an amusing and informative way to...

There is a wealth of detail that teachers can adapt and link in to other subject areas as well as encourage an understanding and interest in careers in the...
Recommended requirements for effective practice in KS1 and KS2, Minimum requirements for effective practice in KS1 and KS2 Subject leaders often ask the D&T Association for advice about factors in effective teaching and learning in the subject. These include the amount of teaching time that should be allocated, the size of budget needed for materials and components, and how many projects should be taught each term. In response, the Association and the D&T Expert Subject Advisory Group (ESAG) have developed a set of twelve minimum...
Programming Challenge, Programming ChallengeAge 11-14 yearsFirst published 2014 This project offers an introduction to microcontrollers for students in Year 8, using a series of programming challenges, progressing from using flashing LEDs and musical chimes to an alarm system. The resource looks at the use of microcontrollers in a range of products, considering the advantages and how input – process – output works in electronic systems in a variety of applications. Students will program PIC microcontrollers using flowchart commands using Logicator software, and learning about the theory of electric components and Ohm’s Law....
Different Designs 4x4 sheets, Age 11-16 yearsFirst published 2008 4x4 planning sheets inspired by ‘Chindogu’ inventions to stimulate ideas amongst KS3 students in product design. 4x4 product analysis and design sheets are widely used in schools at KS3 to help stimulate ideas amongst KS3 students in product design. Initial ideas or existing products are included as the start point and the sheets passed to other students to make suggestions and improvements to the design in the four boxes available, from different perspectives. The sheets are then returned to the original student...
