The study of geography looks at the interactions between the human and the physical world

The study of geography looks at the interactions between the human and the physical world and helps to prepare pupils for roles as global citizens. It explains how landscapes were formed and how humans impact and interact with these landscapes. We aim to build on pupils own experiences at all scales from personal to the global.

At KS3 all pupils have 1 lesson of geography and 1 lesson of Humanities per week. 

At KS4 pupils have 3 lessons per week.  We currently have 3 year 10 classes and 2 year 11 classes.  We also now run Leisure and Toursim and have a group in year 10 and year 11.

As part of the geography curriculum trips and visits are very important and we are aiming to do a trip or get an outside speaker in for each year group in KS3 and take pupils on a residential trip in year 10.

Key Stage 3

In Geography at KS3 a range of Human and physical topics are studied.  Within the subject we aim to give pupils a wide understanding of global issues and teach transferable skills that pupils can apply to other subjects.

We also aim to help pupils to understand Geographical processes through geographical enquiry and thinking skills. Click for more...
