Geography

What is the purpose of our curriculum?

Love to Learn

• At the heart our curriculum across both key stages is the aspiration that pupils make sense of the world around them understanding how people, place and the environment are all connected.
• Our curriculum includes all objectives and aspects required within the National Curriculum.
• We equip pupils with the skills to develop their knowledge through studying places, people as well as the natural and human environments.
• Finally, ignite their passion for Geography and consider potential careers within this field.

Learn to Live

• Geography aims to enable pupils to develop their knowledge, understanding and skills by becoming independent thinkers and questioners, acquiring a solid basis for lifelong learning – Independent Enquirer.
• We encourage curiosity, a passion to learn and a ‘go-for-it’ attitude towards learning by pushing pupils’ own boundaries – Self-Manager.

Live to Love

• Pupils develop an understanding of the world we live in and consider the consequences of human actions through past, present and future - Thankfulness.
• Pupils demonstrate an appreciation of our local area and global community, understanding that they can make a difference in society - Honour.
