Geography
Geography at our school is delivered through a tailor-made curriculum that embraces a cross-curricular approach, connecting geographical knowledge and skills with other areas of learning. Our curriculum covers key Geographical Concepts such as: Place, Space, Environment and Earth Systems. These concepts look at locational knowledge, place knowledge, human and physical geography, and geographical skills and fieldwork. Other inter-weaving concepts of scale, interpretation, diversity, time and interconnections.
Through engaging lessons, children develop their understanding of the world around them, exploring environments near and far while building essential map-reading, data interpretation, and enquiry skills. This approach nurtures curious, informed learners who are equipped to engage thoughtfully with local and global issues.
Our Geography curriculum plays a key part in teaching sustainability and awareness of the global environmental issues affecting our planet. Through topics such as; climate change, bio-diversity and resource depletion, children learn about how humans can impact the environment and how it is possible to live more sustainably through our future actions.
Our Geography leader is Sarah Peacock.
