Throughout our topics, children are encouraged to learn about diverse places, people, natural and human environments whilst developing a deeper understanding of the Earth’s key physical and human features. Children are tasked with answering geographical questions but we also encourage children to ask questions themselves and debate the relevant associated issues. We aim to instil in our pupils a curiosity and fascination about the world and its people.

Children are encouraged to share their ideas through a range of formats, including maps skills (creating and using), collecting evidence and fieldwork skills and writing. We also aim to incorporate current topical incidents into our Geography lessons to deal with the ‘here and now’ of real life, and that it is a ‘living’ subject that contributes to and enhances the children’s knowledge of Geography.

Children have the opportunity to take part in various educational visits linked to Geography. Classes have enjoyed and developed their geography skills at various locations.
