    S1 E5 - Setting Objectives, the National Curriculum and Developing Teachers’ DT Subject Knowledge with Sarah Haigh

    In the fifth episode of The Subject Leaders Podcast, Sarah Haigh, subject leader for DT, answers the following questions: How can subject leaders set clear objectives for their subject's curriculum? How can subject leaders ensure that their subject's curriculum matches the national curriculum? With the national Curriculum, do you feel like it's freeing or constraining to have that maybe one or two pages of objectives as opposed to, like you said, with maths and English and science, where it's actually quite a full curriculum? Are skills continua a good idea when developing a subject based on a national curriculum outlined? How can teachers themselves develop the subject knowledge needed to be able to teach DT? Should children work through the entire iterative design process in each unit?
