Designerly Thinking in the Foundation Stage

Clare Benson; Tara Treleven

Whilst Design and Technology (D&T) was introduced into the primary curriculum (children aged 5–11 years) in England in 1990, there were no specific subjects in the first English Early Years curriculum for children aged 3–5 years (SCAA, 1996). Six areas of learning were identified and whilst D&T content could be identified in all areas, the focus for the subject was within Knowledge and Understanding of the World. As the curriculum has been updated the 6 areas remain (DfEE/QCA, 2000 and DfES, 2007) including Knowledge and Understanding of the World.

Twenty Years of Primary Design and Technology in England

Clare Benson

It hardly seems possible that twenty years has passed since the first National Curriculum for primary schools in England (DES/WO, 1990) was introduced. It was felt that all children had an entitlement to experience a similar curriculum, although schools were free to expand the skills and content and to deliver the curriculum in ways that they felt were most appropriate for their children.
