A Level Geography gives pupils the scope to become independent thinkers. It offers an opportunity to develop and formulate responses and to research and investigate different attitudes, responses or sides to a topic or theme. It engages and involves the learner by using topical and current case studies to allow coverage of issues on a variety of different scales. This ideally places the A Level geographers with well-developed research skills which will be invaluable in the setting of continuing or further education. Furthermore, Geography is viewed by the Russell University group as a ‘facilitating subject’ which means it is a subject required more often than others for admission to a variety of non-related university courses.
To achieve three A Levels and thrive in our Sixth Form, we expect pupils to achieve a minimum of six grade 6s at GCSE, with those looking to study Maths or Science requiring grade 7s.
Physical Geography: Water and the Carbon Cycle, Glacial Systems and Landscapes and Hazards Written examination (40%) Human Geography: Global Systems and Global Governance, Changing Places and Contemporary Urban Environments Written examination (40%) Independent Investigation: 4 days’ fieldwork, some of which will lead to an Independent Investigation (20%)
