Key Stage 3 (Years 7–9) · Design & technology

Textiles

Pupils explore textiles through fibre and fabric properties, pattern development, joining techniques, seam finishes, embellishment and basic garment construction; they learn to select appropriate materials for function and durability, use hand and machine sewing skills, and apply CAD patterning or simple surface-design techniques. Projects encourage consideration of sustainability and cultural context.
