When teaching geography, our intent is to inspire our children’s curiosity and interest to explore the world that they live in and the people within it, which aims to ignite a love of learning. We intend to equip children with geographical skills to develop their interest, knowledge and understanding of diverse places, people, resources and natural and human environments, together with a deep understanding of the Earth’s key physical and human processes.  

By linking geography to our topics, we aim for children to develop a genuine interest in the world around them and for them to develop an enquiring mind.   

Children are encouraged to ask questions and to use a range of different sources to find answers to their questions. They develop their geographical skills and understanding through classroom enquiry and fieldwork. The local area and outside environment are used whenever possible to provide real-life learning experiences and to enable fieldwork skills to be developed.
