Geography

Intent

Geography is the study of people and places in our world. It is important to give children an understanding of whereabouts they live in the world, what other parts of the world look like and how other people live so they can appreciate their wider world. Geography lessons give children the chance to see where other places are in the world, in relation to where they live, how the world was formed and how it is changing through nature and as the result of human impact. Geography can give children dreams of wanting to travel and develops interests in the lives of other people from different cultures.
