Primary D&T: Embedding Stretch and Challenge in Line with Teachers' Standards

Webinar duration: 75 minutes (approx.)

This webinar will provide headteachers, senior leaders, design & technology leads, teachers and practitioners with advice and practical guidance on incorporating stretch and challenge into the design & technology curriculum, thereby ensuring that it sets high standards and ambitious aims for all pupils, aligned with the government’s vision for education, and the Teachers’ Standards. 

In its White Paper, ‘Opportunities for all: strong schools with great teachers for your child’, the government sets out its ambition for a school system that helps every child to fulfil the height of their potential, reflecting the requirement in Part One of the Teachers’ Standards, that ‘a teacher must set goals that stretch and challenge pupils of all backgrounds, abilities and dispositions’.

In this webinar, Chris Gozzard, experienced teacher, leader and curriculum development expert who has worked with the DfE and QCDA, will explain how schools can evaluate and adjust their design & technology curriculum to ensure delivery of a broad, ambitious, and knowledge-rich curriculum which sets high expectations for and raises attainment of all pupils.
