“Creativity takes courage.” Henri Matisse

Learning about artists enables us to make up our own minds about art we like. Whether it’s Monet or Pollock, children see techniques and styles, deciding how they like to paint, sketch or draw for themselves.

“Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works!” Steve Jobs

Understanding how something works is pivotal to learning during a Design and Technology lesson. Children build on different skills, from making puppets, to Roman catapults and water wheels. Research, design and evaluation are key to our successes as designers.
