Project workbench from sketch to photo
Pupils document the whole process: sketches, materials, build and final photo. Teachers assess both process and product.
Built-in sketching
Drawing canvas inside the project — annotate with measurements and angles.
Materials list
Bill of materials with quantities, dimensions and cost — pupils learn planning.
Photo per step
Pupils photograph each step — teachers see the actual process.
Group projects
Multiple pupils contribute to one project — roles assigned automatically.
Safety checks
Built-in workshop safety checklist before starting.
Counts in DT XP
Finished projects earn XP and contribute to the DT subject profile.
In the classroom
Year 5 — bird box
Sketch → materials → photo documentation → assessment.
Year 7 — textile bag
Pattern, cutting, sewing, finish — all documented in one artefact.
Year 9 — exam project
Self-directed project over 6 weeks with weekly portfolio updates.
Two audiences, one tool
You see the whole process — not just the finished product. Step-by-step photo documentation makes it easy to assess process and product separately.
