Geography

Entry Requirements

In general, a 7 at GCSE is the minimum grade you will need to achieve in a subject to be able to study it at Emanuel at A level. Additionally, if you wish to study Mathematics or Physics at A level you will need at least an 8 at GCSE, and those studying Physics at A level must also be studying A level Mathematics. In addition, we require the average grade criteria to be met. This standard indicates that a pupil will be able to study independently, and can successfully access the very much more challenging material presented by the A-level courses. To study this course successfully at A level pupils should have a 9, 8 or 7 at GCSE Geography. The Edexcel course uses an issues-based approach to geographical themes. It relies on some core knowledge that has been developed at the GCSE level; therefore you must have studied Geography at GCSE.
