A high-quality geography education should inspire in pupils a curiosity and fascination about the world and its people that will remain with them for the rest of their lives. We ensure teaching equips pupils with knowledge about diverse places, people, resources and natural and human environments. We aim to utilise our physical geography in our local area to offer enrichment of the Earth’s key physical geography teaching and also offer ample opportunities to ensure children deepen their human geography knowledge through carefully planned trips on a National level. Exposure to new experiences deepens character and allows our children to feel ready to navigate today’s world on a local, national and global level. As pupils continually progress, their growing knowledge about the world should help them to deepen their understanding of the interaction between physical and human processes, and of the formation and use of landscapes and environments. Geographical knowledge, understanding and skills provide the frameworks and approaches that explain how the Earth’s features at different scales are shaped, interconnected and change over time.
All children have access to the geography curriculum, through careful planning, (GDS, SEND/Inclusion) and the curriculum is taught using a variety of teaching and learning methods which include adaptive teaching of the curriculum to enable access.
