The intent of the Geography curriculum at Lordsgate Township CE Primary School is to stimulate the children’s interest, curiosity, knowledge and understanding of the wider world and its people. Learning experiences should allow children to develop locational knowledge, place knowledge, knowledge about human and physical geography, geographical skills and fieldwork techniques. Through Geography and Global Learning opportunities, we intend for pupils to have a growing understanding of their connections to other people and places and have a growing awareness and understanding about current global issues. We aim to help pupils to understand and grow in ability to communicate with people from other cultures and places. We aim for pupils to be able to take actions to improve their life and the lives of others and begin to reflect upon how sustainable their lifestyle is.

Our Geography subject lead is: Mrs McLennan
