Geography

Home   »  Academic  »  Geography

The Geography Department of Aldwickbury seeks to extend the pupils' knowledge by provoking and answering questions about the natural and human worlds, using different scales of enquiry to view them from different perspectives.

We aim to develop knowledge of places and environments throughout the world, an understanding of maps, and a range of investigative and problem solving skills both inside and outside the classroom.

At Aldwickbury, geography serves as a focus within the curriculum for understanding and resolving issues about the environment and sustainable development. It is also an important link between the natural and social sciences.

As pupils study geography at Aldwickbury, they encounter different societies and cultures. This helps them realise how nations rely on each other. It can inspire them to think about their own place in the world, their values and their rights and responsibilities to other people and the environment.
