Supporting Academies Transition to the current National Curriculum for Design & Technology
Are you concerned about the recent decision to review the National Curriculum by the new government?
As you are aware, schools within Multi Academy Trusts (MATs) will be required to deliver all subjects, including D&T, which align with the National Curriculum. We know that this change brings opportunities and challenges in equal measure for some schools.
How can we help make this process run smoothly?
The Design and Technology Association is uniquely positioned to assist you in this transition. With our extensive experience and resources, we can help you plan and deliver the curriculum as outlined in the program of study for D&T in primary and secondary schools in England. Our support includes:
- Curriculum Planning and Development: We provide comprehensive guidance on aligning your existing curriculum with the new requirements. Our expert team can assist in mapping out a curriculum that meets statutory requirements and engages and inspires students.
