Geography

Overview

Geography is the study of our planet, investigating the relationships between people and the environment, at scales ranging from the local to the global.

We learn about a wide range of geographical topics in Key Stage 3 with a view to developing a greater understanding of the world around us. Whilst we aim to build a strong foundation for learners opting to study Geography at GCSE, we also develop a range of transferable knowledge and skills.
