What the college says

A Level Geography is an exciting Course, which will allow you to understand your own place on our planet. Studying geography will deepen your understanding of many contemporary challenges including climate change, food security and our energy choices. We teach an innovative exam specification, which asks relevant questions about what is happening in the world right now. Ever wondered: • How people survive in the slums of the world’s megacities? • Why El Nińo has caused such havoc around the world? • If McDonald’s are taking over the world? • If the next world war will be fought over water? • What impact decades of civil war has had on the inhabitants of Sudan? • Why people die in famines? • How the regeneration projects will transform East London? • Why China are buying shares in London based utility companies? We adopt a student-centred, enquiry-based approach to learning in which teachers and students are partners in the learning process. You will develop analytical, evaluative and decision-making skills. You will also be given the opportunity to conduct independent research and communicate your arguments to other students. Fieldwork is used throughout the course and includes a 2-night residential trip in Y12.
