Course summary

Geography is the science and the humanity of the curriculum, explaining how places and landscapes are formed, how people and their environments interact, and how a diverse range of economies, societies and environments are interconnected in the ‘global village’ of today. The Geography specification enables students to explore contemporary geographical issues in the context of physical geography, human geography and a synoptic investigation. Our students learn to demonstrate geographical knowledge of places, environments and processes, and ‘think as geographers’ as they explore the inter-relationships between people and environments. Furthermore, in discussing issues ranging from tectonic disaster responses to actions taken to tackle global warming, our students develop essential analytical and decision-making skills. In designing and carrying out their own geographical investigation, our students develop key skills in project management, qualitative and quantitative research, fieldwork, data analysis and report writing. Thus, you will develop a set of skills that will be tremendously valuable and make them stand out as they progress to higher education and/or the workplace.
