Geography
Designed to inspire in pupils a curiosity and fascination about the world and its people, our geography curriculum seeks to help pupils understand the space which they inhabit as humans and the wider world around them and develop progressive geographical skills through experiences in the classroom, fieldwork and educational visits.
The curriculum is designed around these following key themes:
- Locational knowledge and map work
- Human geography
- Physical geography
- Change: past, present and future
During Year 6, we will be focusing on a number of different topics.
