Geography A-level
at St Mary'S Catholic College, A Voluntary Academy · college
What the college says
Geography is the study of physical and human environments and how they interact together. It is delivered in the two disciplines of Physical and Human Geography and deals with a range of current topical global issues. Geography builds on what is covered at GCSE Level and apply a range of detailed contemporary case studies to core geographical concepts. You will study the systems, patterns and processes that happen in both urban and rural areas. The content includes analysing the answer to questions such as: ‘How do places change people’s identity? Is the world becoming a borderless place? How do coastal processes affect the lives anf humans? Can humans survive in the future? Can natural disasters really be mitigated? Without Geography we stand little chance of answering such questions.
