This Design and Technology video introduces Year 5 pupils to the concept of a design brief as part of the Eco-Gadget Bike Project: Design lesson. Pupils will learn how to outline project goals, identify constraints, and create clear design criteria to guide their work. The video explains the importance of writing specific and measurable must statements, prioritizing key product features, and ensuring user needs are met throughout the design process.

This video is part of the D&T Upper Key Stage 2 scheme of work, helping pupils develop problem-solving and analytical skills by applying structured design methods to real-world challenges.
