Intent

In geography, we strive to inspire pupil’s interest and curiosity of the world around us as well as its people and cultures. Our children will develop an understanding and fascination of our world, through experiences, investigation and research. Learning about the wider world we live in as well as our local area gives the children a sense of responsibility and understanding about the ways in which we can look after the world. We aim to provide regular opportunities for children to develop their understanding of this through fieldwork and practical activities. Pupil’s geographical skills will be deepened in both fieldwork and classroom teaching through the use of a variety of maps, diagrams, globes, aerial photographs and geographical language.
