Mission Sentence | At Brinkworth Earl Danby's School we believe that, "Design creates culture. Culture shapes values. Values determine the future." (Robert L Peters). Our DT curriculum equips children to experience the joy of solving a problem and see an idea come to life, develop the creative, technical and practical expertise needed to perform everyday tasks confidently and to participate successfully in an increasingly technological world. |
