This D&T staff meeting will support teachers in exploring the design elements such as exploded and cross sectional diagrams and mock ups and consider how CAD can be integrated progressively throughout your curriculum. It will also provide practical activity ideas linked to their key stage and offer time to adapt planning in line with these suggestions.
This unique approach to staff meetings is:
- Aligned with the national curriculum and led by the subject leader
- Designed to give the D&T subject leader confidence and ownership of the meeting
- Focused and purposeful, with short, tailored recordings for each key stage
In the resources section for this staff meeting there is:
- Guidance for the D&T subject leader on organisation of the meeting

How is this unique approach to staff meetings organised?

I found the CAD course very useful and informative. Working in key stage groups was particularly beneficial, as it allowed for focused discussions that were directly relevant to the age ranges we teach. Sharing ideas and approaches within these groups made the learning more practical and immediately applicable.
The recording was engaging and extremely easy to follow. The step-by-step instructions ensured everyone felt confident using the software straight away.
