Geography is a relevant and dynamic subject that helps you to make sense of the world around you. At A level, a variety of topics are studied across both human and physical geography that help you to engage critically with some of the most pressing challenges facing the world today. Geography is unique at bridging the gap between the Sciences and Humanities/Arts and combines well with a wide variety of A levels. As well as the exciting topic content, you will also develop your qualitative and quantitative geographical skills, comprising areas such as GIS, numerical data and newspaper texts. Geography suits students who have good analytical skills and opinions and who like to discuss issues to formulate arguments. You will also have the opportunity to carry out fieldwork in this country and abroad in places such as the Lake District and Iceland.
We require external students joining STAHS to achieve a minimum of grade 6 in Maths and in English, alongside the grade requirements in relevant GCSEs for their chosen A levels. Grade 7 or above in GCSE Geography, although we will consider students who have not taken Geography to GCSE.
