What the college says

Our ever-changing, communication and trade driven world has changed how we live; every day we read newspaper articles, watch television programmes and hear stories of how the world is changing or the impacts of climate both physical and economic. Studying Geography will enable pupils to acquire and apply knowledge and understanding of physical and human processes; also interactions and outcomes over space and time through the study of places and environments. Development of higher order skills including critical understanding of how the physical environments interact with human activities to produce unique dynamic patterns from a very local area to global scales, will challenge and stimulate. In a rapidly changing world, Geography will ensure that all pupils have a greater understanding of their place within it and the skills to evaluate global situations. This will broaden their knowledge to make them an exceptional member of society. The department is passionate about fulfilling the Academy’s ethos of promoting and developing holistic learners that understand the world around them. We want to develop modern British citizens that have an understanding and appreciation of the wider-world around them.
