Geography

Course summary

A Level Geography offers a natural progression from GCSE. We ask students to look at contemporary and topical issues, challenging them to consider their place in the world. This engaging and flexible course gives students the opportunity to: • study the relationship between human populations with their physical environment at a variety of scales, from the local to the global; • consider their own role, in relation to themes and issues being studied, and the roles, values and attitudes of others including decision makers. The specification follows an issues and impacts approach to contemporary Geography that is suitable for all students. Topics range from Tectonic Processes and Change to Globalisation; from Glaciation to Superpowers and Health; Human Rights and Intervention. “Geography is the subject which holds the key to our future” Michael Palin
