We will be following the CIE International A-Level course which allows us to sit 50% of the exam early, in November, prior to focusing on the ‘Advanced’ units for the final June examinations. The exam encourages the development of a wide range of intellectual skills, and enhances the skills of literacy, numeracy and data response, as we seek to explain the human and physical environments in which we live. There is no coursework.
Candidates who have a wide interest in the world around them will benefit from the local and global issues we cover, reflecting the inter-relationship between people and the environment. The course will encourage learning both inside the classroom and outside, undertaking practical work in the field. It is beneficial if candidates have achieved a grade 6 or above for GCSE Geography, but this is not imperative for choosing this subject. Candidates need a firm grasp of the English language and should be able to recognise several opinions and sides of people-related debates, whilst also recognising the necessity of in- depth knowledge in all areas.
