Vision:
To provide our pupils with a well-rounded knowledge and understanding of the world in which they live; by investigating the diversity of the physical and human processes that shape places across our planet, and the interaction of humans with the natural world. Intent: To broaden the spiritual, moral, social and cultural understanding of our students as they become well-rounded global citizens; and to develop their geographical skills which will help them in school and beyond. Implementation: The delivery of engaging lessons in and out of the classroom; aims to inspire our students towards becoming empathetic global citizens with a genuine wonder of the world they live in. Impact: To develop the students we teach into global citizens; with an interest in the world around them in their years at school and beyond. |
