Geography

The intent of our geography curriculum is to create in our students an understanding and fascination for the world they live in. We equip all our children with an appreciation of diverse places, people, resources and natural and physical environments together with a
deep understanding of the earth’s key physical and human processes. Our geography skills are progressive which enables children to deepen their understanding of the interaction between physical and human processes, and the formation and use of landscapes and environments. The geographical knowledge, understanding and skills we provide give our children the frameworks they need to explain how the earth’s features are shaped, interconnected and change over time. We encourage our children to ask questions and provide them with the research and enquiry skills for them to explore discover the answers to these questions. Through exploring their local environment our students are competent in collecting, analysing, interpreting and communicating their findings in appropriate ways.
We intend that the skills and knowledge our children gain from their geography curriculum will provide them with a great understanding and respect for the world around them.
