Design and Technology: Education
- Question
-
To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the report by the Education Policy Institute A spotlight on Design and Technology Study in England, published on 23 March 2022; and in particular, the finding that take up of Design and Technology in schools has fallen significantly over the last decade.
- Answer
-
The department is aware of this report and will consider its findings in future policy development. Design and technology is compulsory in state-maintained schools from key stages 1 to 3, and pupils in maintained schools have an entitlement to study design and technology at key stage 4. Design and technology is included in Progress 8 and Attainment 8, which are headline measures for school accountability.
