Curriculum Intent
The Geography curriculum at Alt Bridge allows learners to build knowledge and awareness of the world they live in and the global issues that they will be impacted by or will need an awareness of in their lives beyond school. Our curriculum exposes learners to both human and physical topics so that they have a sufficient breadth of knowledge, with equal development of the skills that they will need in KS4 should they choose Geography. Pupils will develop their ability to use geographical skills, data, maps, and construct arguments using evidence. These lessons will help them to develop skills that will be crucial in the world of work as well as being a well-equipped, responsible and environmentally aware global citizen. Consequently, our curriculum provides opportunities for hands-on fieldwork in both KS3 and KS4. The KS4 curriculum will ensure all pupils are suitably prepared for their assessments, whilst also developing their geographical understanding of the world they live in.
