Geography Curriculum

Geography at School 21 instils knowledge and understanding of places within and beyond the UK. Through explicit teaching of key geographical concepts and the spaced repetition of key knowledge, students acquire the foundational understanding to ask curious questions, build empathy and engage as active citizens in our changing world. Human and physical Geography are equally valued, allowing students to build increasingly detailed understanding of geographical processes and the interconnections between these. Geographical skills are embedded within our curriculum, allowing students to critically analyse information and develop as problem solvers. Our curriculum is underpinned by a commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion; seeking to foster an appreciation of difference, to intentionally seek and value diverse voices, and to purposefully build a rounded understanding of places and cultures within and beyond the UK.
