Geography
Vision:
'The study of geography is about more than just memorising places on a map- it's about understanding the complexity of our world and appreciating the diversity of cultures that exists across continents. And in the end, it's about using all that knowledge to help bridge divides and bring people together.' Barack Obarma
At Cheriton Primary School, our vision for the Geography curriculum is to spark, within our pupils, a lifelong fascination with the world and its people. We are committed to nurturing a deep-seated curiosity about our planet and its diverse cultures. Our students will embark on a journey of discovery, gaining knowledge and understanding of the world, the United Kingdom, and their local area.
Through immersive learning experiences, we will explore the world's most significant human and physical features, delving into the intricate interactions between them. Our curriculum will illuminate how the Earth's landscapes are shaped, inspiring wonder and inquiry into the forces that shape our planet.
We recognise the value of utilising our environment as a rich learning resource. From our local area to the enchanting shores of Folkestone's beach, The Warren and beyond, we will harness the natural wonders around us to enhance our learning journey.
Our Geography curriculum is designed to cultivate inquisitive minds, instil a sense of stewardship for our planet, and equip our pupils with the knowledge and skills to navigate an increasingly interconnected world with confidence and empathy.
