Designing purposeful hats

This archived Art and design scheme of work video introduces teachers to a fun, collaborative design challenge where Key stage 2 pupils work in groups to design and make hats for a specific purpose. It highlights the importance of ideas, teamwork, and prototyping, reflecting real processes in the creative and cultural industries. The video demonstrates each stage, from sketching and refining concepts to building imaginative hats inspired by discussion, themes, and examples, before showcasing the final outcomes in a lively fashion parade.

This video is part of Kapow Primary’s original KS2 Art and design resources. It equips teachers to support pupils in developing creative thinking, problem-solving, and teamwork skills, while encouraging imaginative design and presentation.
