Our geography curriculum is designed to develop pupils’ understanding of the world through a carefully sequenced study of place, space, and environment. Pupils build secure knowledge of physical and human processes, while developing the skills to interpret maps, data, and fieldwork evidence.
Through the study of diverse locations such as the Amazon Rainforest, Whitby, and Peru, pupils explore themes including climate, trade, settlement, and sustainability. Teaching prioritises clear explanations, precise vocabulary, and regular retrieval so that knowledge is retained and applied, enabling pupils to understand their place within an interconnected and changing world.

We have a two-year curriculum cycle to fit with our mixed age classes.
Our geography curriculum has been developed to ensure that it covers all aspects of the National Curriculum. Geography is taught in well planned and sequenced units and where appropriate links are made to other subjects.
