Climate change, migration, natural disasters, inequality, energy security and water insecurity are just some of the challenges facing the next generation, which geographers must help address. A key element of the Edexcel A level and GCSE B specifications offered is the interrelationship between people and their environments alongside an understanding of the opportunities, problems and conflicts that result. These courses provide an opportunity to research exciting contemporary case studies and explore relevant geographical theory. Fieldwork is undertaken in partnership with the Field Studies Council at Walton on the Naze and East London. Visiting speakers are also arranged as part of a varied learning programme. Geography is highly valued by universities as an A Level choice, and in 2015 The Guardian identified Geography as the ‘must-have A level’. We are a supportive and friendly department with extremely high expectations of our students. It is pleasing that large numbers of Brampton students have progressed to read Geography at university; destinations include the University of Cambridge, Durham University, University College London and King’s College London. Year One Topic 1: Tectonic Processes and Hazards Topic 2: Globalisation Topic 3: Coastal Landscapes and Change Topic 4: Regenerating Places Year Two Topic 1: The Carbon Cycle and Energy Security Topic 2: Migration, Identity and Sovereignty Topic 3: The Water Cycle and Water Insecurity Topic 4: Superpowers
To clarify our admission policy, we do not adopt a rigid policy. Our primary criterion is the ability to demonstrate the motivation and commitment as well as the background skills, knowledge and aptitude necessary to complete the A-level courses successfully. These cannot always be easily defined and our preference is to evaluate these factors on an individual basis, where possible. However, in general, we would expect at least grade B passes (or grade 6) at GCSE across the range of subjects, particularly those relevant to A-level subject choices. The exception to this is Mathematics, Modern Languages and Science where we expect at least A grades. The academic profile of our A-level students varies, although the majority have obtained at least A and B grades at GCSE.
