In today’s rapidly changing world, there is arguably no more important time to be studying Geography. A Level geographers learn to see the bigger picture as they make connections between diverse physical systems, environments, and human populations. They engage critically with contemporary issues in a wide range of places, applying their geographical knowledge, understanding and skills to make sense of the world around them. Pupils learn fieldwork skills through a residential trip to the Lake District, and are equipped with research and writing skills as they undertake a field work investigation of their own design. Studying Geography in Sixth Form is an enjoyable, stimulating and challenging experience as pupils develop a more in-depth understanding of the world and acquire a range of skills which will prove valuable whatever path they choose to take beyond A Level. Geography’s varied nature makes it an excellent compliment to a broad range of other subjects.
Pupils study a wide range of topics such as glacial landscapes, human rights, superpowers and human interactions with the water and carbon cycles. Towards the end of the course pupils will learn to draw on all their geographical knowledge and understanding to answer synoptic questions which ask them to consider the role and attitudes of different players and future uncertainties.
