Assessment

Unit 1: Physical Systems (Coasts & Earth Life Support Systems) Unit 2: Human Interactions (Changing Places, Migration & Human Rights) Unit 3: Geographical Debates (Natural Hazards & Disease Dilemmas) Unit 4: Independent Investigation (Non-Examined Assessment) The course includes four separate day trips for fieldwork, which will strengthen your data collection techniques and help build case study knowledge for the Changing Places topic. The trips will also help prepare you for the Non-Examined Assessment, which accounts for 20% of the A Level. The NEA provides you with a great opportunity to investigate an area of the specification that particularly interests you. You will complete a literature review, utilise primary and secondary data collection techniques and apply your analytical and evaluative skills during the investigation. These are all skills that are highly regarded by most University courses and in the workplace.
