Geography

In Geography we expect students to run their own investigations into geographical issues, using a range of cartographical, graphical and statistical skills.

They will gain a detailed knowledge of places and concepts at local, national and international scales. They will draw together evidence to make decisions and justify their opinions, learning to present a balanced view. They will explain geographical concepts as well as the causes and consequences of change using a chain of reasoning, skills that will enable them to access college, university and the work place.

​

As well as employing excellent classroom based teaching practices, we use fieldwork and links with local businesses to make geography relevant and engaging. Our latest geography trips include:

Year 10 - Woolston and Bournemouth
