Geography
The geography curriculum at Southam St James will ensure all children gain knowledge rich understanding of aspects of human and physical geography, both in Britain and across the wider world. Pupils will work as geographers, studying maps, photographs, data and written reports based on geographical enquires in order to secure their geographical perspective.
The geography curriculum incorporates fundamental geographical knowledge and skills, allowing pupils to build on a firm foundation in future years. Many links are made throughout the learning, both with respect to knowledge and skills.
As a result of this pupils will use frequent retrieval of key facts, analysis of geographical sources and challenging critical thinking exercises to ensure knowledge is remembered long term in order for them to be successful in the next stage of their education.
