The study of geography is about more than memorising places on a map. It’s about understanding the complexity of our world and appreciating the diversity of cultures that exist across continents. And in the end, it’s about using all that knowledge to help bridge divides and bring people together. Our mission is to cultivate a passion amongst our students towards having a critical understanding of the world in the 21st century. As a team, we want to take students on a journey of discovery and intrigue, immersing them in a range of different real-life examples from their local neighbourhoods up to and including global problems such as climate change. Geography is a wide-ranging A-level that brings together the importance of human societies and their culture, economy and politics at a global, national and local scale.
At least five GCSE’s at grade 4 or above all from the core subjects.
80% of the course is assessed by three exams at the end of your second year. The other 20% is done via fieldwork which will comprise either a Human or Physical Geography project carried out by you during the 2 years and will offer you the chance to develop a wide range of practical skills before creating a 4,000 word fieldwork report.
