"Pupils enjoy coming to school everyday, they are highly motivated and leaders and teachers are enthusiastic about providing an ambitious curriculum for all pupils" Ofsted 2022
Class 6 began their D&T project by looking at different climates around the world. They identified how these differing climates affects which fruit and vegetables can be grown in different countries. They realised that not all the fruits and vegetables eaten in the U.K. can be grown here and, therefore, some are imported from other countries.
