1. KS3 Design & Technology Year 7 Programme of Study 2015/16 Year 7- Example of the order of rotations. Autumn TermSpring TermSummer Term Resistant Materials: Making and packaging an eco- puzzle using woods, metal and plastics. Graphics: Designing and making a pop-up greetings card for their target user. CAD (Computer Aided Design): Using the software package SolidWorks to design elements of their eco- puzzle. CAD/CAM (Computer Aided Design/Computer Aided Manufacture): Using the software package 2d design to design elements of their trophy that are manufactured in school using the laser cutter and router. Electronics: Designing and making a sporting trophy. Pupils will build an electronic circuit that enables the trophy to light up. Food: Cooking a variety of tasty dishes. Textiles: Making fabric monsters. In year 7 all students complete the modules of study following a rotational system. Therefore not all students will complete all of the modules in the order above due to rooming and staff availability. However, at the end of year 7 all students will have completed all of the modules. NB The above order is given as a guide. See rotation sheets that follow for further details. In year 7 all student’s are introduced to all of the areas of Design and Technology. Assessment is focused towards accuracy of making skills and using the correct terminology when completing written tasks.
