Geography
- _76E0005
Geography is the study of the earth’s landscapes, peoples, places and environments. It is, quite simply, about the world in which we live.
Geography is unique in bridging the social sciences (human geography) with the natural sciences (physical geography).
Geography puts this understanding of social and physical processes within the context of places and regions - recognising the great differences in cultures, political systems, economies, landscapes and environments across the world, and the links between them. Understanding the causes of differences and inequalities between places and social groups underlie much of the newer developments in human geography.
We teach Geography from Year 7 all the way through to A-level in Year 13. In year 10 Geography becomes a GCSE option. We cover a variety of geographical themes such as rivers, coasts, weather, map skills, population, tourism, industry and tectonic activity. A number of countries are studied in depth. These include Kenya and Italy.
