Course summary

Geography is a wonderful, all-encompassing subject that is increasingly relevant in our global society. We aim to develop secure knowledge and understanding of the complex relationships between people and the environment, ensuring consistent success in examinations for our students. To accompany a varied programme of lessons, fieldwork is a key part of the specification. Previous destinations have included Iceland, Morocco and Snowdonia. Geography straddles the arts and sciences; it complements all areas of study and is a facilitating subject for a range of university courses and subsequent careers. 

Entry requirements

• At least 5 GCSEs at either 8 or 9 and three grades at 7. • GCSE grade 8 or 9 in your chosen A Level subjects. • GCSE grade 7 or above in Mathematics and English Language. • For two science A Levels, or Maths alongside science, at least a grade 8 will be needed in both subjects. We would expect a strong grade at GCSE for entry to the A Level course, but of greater importance is a curiosity about the world around us and an enquiring mind, together with a commitment to the subject. A proactive approach to independent study is also valuable, as it is crucial to keep up with contemporary issues.
