Geography
Whenever there is a topic which focuses on Geography, each learner will explore Geographical concepts, content, vocabulary, knowledge and practical skill acquisition.
At the end of the topic, depth (Kapow Learning Statements) and breadth (National Curriculum End Points) are assessed using analyse tasks and pupil conferencing.
Other areas of the National Curriculum will also be taught as part of this topic - however geography will very often be the driver for writing and reading.
The School has been awarded with the Heritage Schools Award for its committment to Local Geography.
Characteristics of a Geographer
Throughout a topic the knowledge and skills of being a geographer are developed through learning about:
- Locational knowledge
- Place knowledge
- Human and physical geography
- Geographical skills and fieldwork

The documents below outline how we do this:
Please note that it is our aim to follow the units in the suggested mixed aged order by Kapow Primary, however we may change them if we feel that they would work better linked to other units / topics from across the National Curriculum.
