Primary Engineer
Construction Project
We are supported by regional industry funders to provide professional development for up to two teachers, two sets of physical classroom resources, digital teaching resources and face to face celebration events in support of placing engineering in the classroom within the curriculum’s requirements.
The one day training offered to teachers is highly practical and informative resulting in an increased confidence in delivering this whole class project, enthusing your learners and linking to practicing engineers.
The project will enable your learners to develop skills, both practical and cognitive, and to use and apply maths and science through a design and make project activity. The project can link to learning themes and deliver cross-curricular teaching and learning through an engineering focus.
Course outcomes
- Professional development training for two teachers (one from from Key Stage 1/Lower primary and one from Key Stage 2/Upper primary).
- Understanding how to use the tools and resources provided with the course for use in the classrooms.
- Models made on the course to be taken as exemplars for use in class.
- Awareness of the teaching resources available and how to engage an engineer to contextualise the learning.
- Meet your curriculum requirements for D&T and focus science, maths and literacy skills.
- Improve resilience, problem-solving, through the creative design process.
- Improved confidence in designing and making products that are fit for purpose.
- Learn how to integrate simple electric circuits into a working models.
