Our vision at Northgate is that through our teaching children will be exposed to purposeful learning experiences that enable them to investigate and solve real and relevant problems. They will develop the knowledge and skills they need, including life skills such as cooking and nutrition, so that they can understand the process of design, production and evaluation, whilst learning how to manage and control risks within a safe environment and become innovative in their creations and designs. Design and technology will give them the opportunity to be resourceful by incorporating skills from other subject areas including mathematics, ICT and art. |
On leaving Northgate our children will have acquired the skills they need to apply beyond primary education and support them to contribute to their community and the wider world.
