Curriculum Area: Geography
Curriculum Leader: Mr G Brown
Intent
To inspire pupils to be global citizens who are curious and fascinated about the world and its people that will remain with them for the rest of their lives. Equip pupils with knowledge about diverse places, people, resources and natural and human environments, together with a deep understanding of the Earth’s key physical and human processes.
The biggest change for 2021/2022 to the Geography Department
Units will include opportunities to empower students with the ability to reason, solve problems and work hard in addition to introducing them to powerful world concepts. The curriculum will also provide them with a viewpoint on geography related careers and diversity within the UK and around the world.
What are we most proud of?
The most exciting aspect of the new geography curriculum is its engagement in the ever changing extreme challenges that we face on a day to day basis. The golden thread throughout each unit will look at what causes these challenges, how they impact us and our planet, before students investigate how we can overcome them
