What the college says

The Key Stage 5 curriculum in geography follows the Edexcel A-Level exam board and builds upon the core knowledge and skills developed during pupils GCSE course. In preparation for component one pupils develop their understanding of physical geographic processes on a range of scales from local to global. Throughout this component pupils will reflect upon human interaction with coastal, tectonic, hydrologic and carbon systems. Through completion of component two pupils will reflect upon their role in an increasingly globalised world as well as the future challenges presented through the worlds changing superpowers, and well as the health and human rights challenges that will be faced during this century. Through their third examination pupils will complete a synoptic assessment that draws across the content learnt throughout the course with a focus upon the themes of players, attitudes and actions as well as futures and uncertainties.
