Geography Curriculum

The Curriculum

 

Pupils are prepared for Common Entrance and Scholarship exams at 13+ which are broadly based on the syllabus required at Key Stage 3. Coverage of our syllabus begins in Year 6 with the easier, and more dramatic, concepts and finishing in Year 8 with the more complex and demanding. Year 5 is a transition zone between the Junior School Curriculum and the rigours of Common Entrance and Scholarship.

 

A Sense of Place

 

We believe that giving our pupils a sense of global location—finding out where places are— is a key part of our job in preparing children for their life beyond school and therefore give that task its due amount of our time.

 

Topics

 

Year 5: the Earth; the Environment; the Water Cycle; Atlas mapwork

Year 6: Volcanoes and Earthquakes; Ordnance Survey mapwork; Weather

Year 7: Rivers and Flooding; Landslides; Coasts; Settlement; National Parks and their Problems

Year 8: Economic Activities; Climate; Weathering; Sustainable Development

 

Fieldwork Enquiries

 

Enquiry work is a vital part of our Geography work.

From Years 6 to 8 the pupils will do an enquiry each year.

The project that is completed in Year 8 forms an integral part of the Common Entrance examination.
