A Level Geography helps students to understand the complexities of the changing world as well as encouraging an interest in current events. The course takes an issues-based approach, exploring a range of relevant global concerns such as the consequences of globalisation, the changing order of world superpowers, tectonic hazards, water and energy insecurity and, of course, climate change. By the end of the Upper Sixth, students should have a thorough understanding of how people and the world interact and will be confident using a range of analytical tools such as statistical analysis and GIS. Geography is a unique subject that bridges STEM, social sciences, arts and humanities.
Whilst it is not necessary to have studied GCSE Geography in advance of A Level studies, it might be considered unusual not to have. What is essential is to enter the classroom with an interest in the world around you!
Paper 1: 30% Physical systems. Paper 2: 30% Human Geography. Paper 3: 20% Synoptic paper. Paper 4: NEA 20% This is based on individual research carried out byeach student independently.
