Food Technology

Intent:

KS3 Technology is a skill based curriculum that embraces the practical side of learning; our students have the opportunity to prepare and cook a variety of dishes, learn sewing techniques to create their own products, including graphics and electronics under the Design & Technology umbrella.

Our curriculum is developed to inspire students to use their creativity and imagination to design and make products that solve real life problems within a variety of contexts, considering their own and others’ needs.

Students will learn how to take risks, becoming resourceful, innovative, enterprising and capable individuals.
