Here is a scheme of learning for a Design and Technology unit that aligns with the principles of the Curriculum for Wales. This Scheme of Learning (SOL) has been carefully crafted to be accessible for delivery by a non-specialist teacher in a general-purpose classroom over the course of a term.

It includes prerequisite knowledge, comprehensive assessment rubrics, lesson overviews, and a curated list of key vocabulary to support both teaching and learning throughout the unit.
