“What is D&T – and why do we need it?”, a new video produced by the D&T demonstrates the importance of the subject of D&T in a balanced curriculum and how it has developed from craft-based roots into a modern, creative and rigorous subject.
The 10-minute video also reveals why – with the current skills’ shortages in the creative, manufacturing and engineering industries – it is a valuable subject for young people to study.
The video is part of the D&T Association’s ongoing “Designed and Made in Britain …?” campaign, which highlights the importance of the subject in a 21st century curriculum and the serious challenges facing it in many schools at the present time.
