Key Stage 3 (Years 7–9) · Design & technology
Making
Pupils learn practical making skills including safe use of hand tools, shaping and joining materials, measuring and marking out with accuracy, and finishing techniques for wood, metal, plastics and composites; they develop material selection, quality control and time-management through step-by-step manufacture and prototype development. Emphasis is placed on translating designs into working prototypes and refining processes.
