Geography

Curriculum Overview

All children – regardless of gender, starting point or background – will have the opportunity to engage with a high quality geography education. They will be equipped with the knowledge, skills and vocabulary to understand about diverse places, people, resources and natural and human environments.

Together with a deep understanding of the earth’s key physical and human processes, we will provide children with explanations of how the earth’s features are shaped over time. We intend to inspire a sense of enjoyment and curiosity about geography.
