Geography forms the focus for themed learning for children. Our whole school, year group and termly learning sequences enable children to gain geographical knowledge and skills alongside making meaningful links with other subjects. Children learn about local, national and global places and the relationships between people and environments.

INTENT

• To inspire pupils’ curiosity and fascination about the world and its people and how the interaction between people and places shapes the world we live in and protects world environments for the future.
• To enable children to gain geographical knowledge and skills.
• To enable children to learn about local, national and global places.

IMPLEMENTATION

• The National Curriculum provides the basis for our studies, with the curriculum being personalised to the needs of our pupils and the location of our school.
• Field work is an important aspect of geographical studies and is carried out both locally and further afield.

IMPACT

By having a whole term intense focus on Geography throughout the year will enable children to broaden their understanding of geographical skills and deepen their understanding of the world around us.
