Geography


Our Geography Curriculum

 

The purpose of St Michael’s High School Geography curriculum is to develop Geographers that are global citizens, who are aware of natural, human and environmental changes and who will help to build a sustainable future.   

 

Our curriculum is fully inclusive, enabling all students to achieve excellence in their learning, encouraging students to flourish spiritually, personally and academically.  The Geography curriculum is reviewed continuously and is a live, working document, taking into account current events which shape our planet.   Our key concepts are carefully sequenced to allow progression in Geography and supports the development of reading and literacy throughout the school, through regularly reading complex texts and promoting a love for reading within the subject.  Our knowledge-rich curriculum exposes students to ideas and concepts beyond the National Curriculum and examination specifications.  

 

Students develop an understanding that Geography is present within everyday life in everything we do.  Our Geographers gain experiences in the field and in the classroom that enable them to become highly perceptive, reinforce their theoretical knowledge and develop practical skills. Our curriculum develops memory and recall in order to acquire key knowledge and skills for higher order thinking.  Skills acquired in Geography lessons allow students to become confident, independent learners who are highly employable in the world of work.
