Studying geography at A Level provides you with knowledge and understanding that is essential for any citizen of the planet in the 21st century. Through exciting topics, you will understand the nature of physical and human geography whilst unpicking the debates surrounding contemporary global challenges. The course will equip you with the skills necessary for success in higher education and the world of work. Geography is a multidisciplinary subject in a world that increasingly values people who have the skills to work across the physical and social sciences. The AQA Geography specification is ‘issues-based’ with many of the topics focused on the news headlines of today. This makes the subject highly relevant, thought-provoking and interesting, providing an understanding and appreciation of the complex world in which we live. Geography’s flexibility and adaptability as either a science or an art helps to boost its popularity in the Sixth Form.
To be considered for a place in our Sixth Form you will need a minimum of six GCSEs at grade 6 or above, with a minimum of a Grade 6 or 7 in the subjects you wish to study at A-Level. You must have at least Grade 7 to study A Level Maths and/or Science (Biology, Chemistry, Physics). Sixth Form entry is also based on an interview with the Headmaster, a school reference and academic reports from your current school.
Geography A Level is assessed through two examinations and one piece of coursework at the end of Year 13: Unit 1 (40%) – Physical Geography Unit 2 (40%) – Human Geography Unit 3 (20%) – Geography Fieldwork Investigation
