Geography at Dallow

‘I learn geography through three strands: UK, Europe and World. I start by learning about my local geography and the world as a whole, before journeying around the world through case studies as I get older. I learn about the human and physical geography around the world and about the impact humans have on our world. I practise my fieldwork skills across the curriculum.’

In KS1, the aim of the curriculum is to give the pupils a solid foundation of knowledge about their local area and the UK. They are introduced to the concept of human and physical geography and learn key fieldwork skills in relation to maps and directions.

Throughout Key Stage 2, children learn through case studies spreading across the continents. Children study different biomes, cultures,  types of physical geography (river, volcanoes, mountains) and human geography (trade, settlements, land use) as well as continuing to develop their  skills, becoming proficient in mapwork and fieldwork skills.
