Geography
“The study of geography is about more than just memorising places on a map. It’s about understanding the complexity of our world, 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 Obama
At SIJS, we want our children to really see the world with a deep understanding of the Earth’s key physical and human processes. Not only do our children learn about the seas, poles, deserts and mountains of the world, but learn about the people who live there and what life is like for them. We believe a high-quality geography education should inspire in pupils a curiosity and fascination about the world and its people. Our geography curriculum equips our children with knowledge about diverse places, people, resources and natural and human environments. Wherever possible, we use our locality to give children experiences of geographical fieldwork and compare and contrast our local area with places ‘elsewhere’.
