Geography

Implementation

Our Geography curriculum meets the requirements of the national curriculum and has been further developed in school to meet the needs of our children. Our termly themes are focussed on a history or geography topic allowing the learning in these areas to be linked to other subject areas but still to be taught as discrete subjects. To support the teaching we focus on the skills they need to use and apply the knowledge they secure. Our curriculum is designed using Curriculum Maestro - for further information see on main curriculum page.


The topics the children learn have been identified through national curriculum requirements and we also seek to create aspirations through learning practical hands on field work skills, engage them with local study in balance with exploring new places and developing a locational understanding of the world, introduce new places and different people. We aim to use child friendly topics to develop curiosity to explore. We further enhance an deepen the children's learning with memorable experiences and school visits and residentials.

 

Impact

At Wilbury we aim to have pupils who are confident and able to talk about what they have learnt in geography using subject specific vocabulary. We want our children to enjoy geography and are able to recall their learning over time. Children's work should demonstrate that geography is taught at an age appropriate standard across each year group with opportunities for children of all abilities to engage; that what they produce is of good quality and demonstrates pupils are acquiring knowledge, skills and vocabulary in an appropriate sequence
