Geography
Through the study of geography, our pupils will have an understanding of the human and physical features of their local area and the wider world. They will be able to identify and name the countries and continents of the world, where to locate them and know how to care for it. They will develop a curiosity and fascination about the world and its environments, an understanding of different cultures and an interest and understanding of diverse places and people, alongside key physical and human processes.
