Geography Curriculum Statement

Intent

Geography is essentially about understanding the world we live in. It helps to provoke and provide answers to questions about the natural and human aspects of the world.
At Kingsmoor, we want our children to be fascinated about the world and the people in it and aims to inspire our pupils with a curiosity that should last for the rest of their lives. Our children should know about the diversity of places, people, and natural and human environments. They should also develop an understanding of the physical and human processes of the planet Earth.
Our locality and community play an important part in our geography curriculum. Children, throughout the school, are given opportunities to explore and observe geographical concepts that are right on our doorstep. It is our aim that the geography curriculum enables children to develop knowledge and skills that are transferrable to other curriculum areas.

As Geographers we will demonstrate:

  • An excellent knowledge of where places are and what they are like.
  • An excellent understanding of the ways in which places are interdependent and interconnected and how much human and physical environments are interrelated.
  • An extensive base of geographical knowledge and vocabulary.
  • Fluency in complex, geographical enquiry and the ability to apply questioning skills and use effective analytical and presentational techniques.
  • The ability to reach clear conclusions and develop a reasoned argument to explain findings.
  • Significant levels of originality, imagination or creativity as shown in interpretations and representations of the subject matter.
  • Highly developed and frequently utilised fieldwork and other geographical skills and techniques.
  • A passion for and commitment to the subject, and a real sense of curiosity to find out about the world and the people who live there.
  • The ability to express well-balanced opinions, rooted in very good knowledge and understanding about current and contemporary issues in society and the environment.
