Our Geography Lead is Mrs. Horsfield

Intent

Our geography teaching centres upon developing an understanding of our world; primarily through experience, investigation and learning from primary and secondary sources.

Through building upon knowledge and skills year on year we aim to inspire a curiosity and fascination about the world around them and its people.

Teaching will equip pupils with knowledge about different places, people, resources and natural and human environments in Kent, in this country, in Europe and in the world. We will also deepen an understanding of the Earth’s key physical and human processes.

Implementation

Geography is taught every week every other term and pupil’s understanding of land and sea starts with our youngest Early Years children. As pupils progress through the school, their growing knowledge about the world will help them to deepen their understanding of their local area, the interaction between physical and human processes, and of the formation and use of landscapes and environments.

Outcomes in books and evidence from pupil voice demonstrate a broad and balanced geography curriculum and clearly show children’s acquisition of identified key knowledge and skills.
