Geography

Geography enables pupils to make sense of their world. At Dee Point Primary School, we aim to instil in our pupils a sense of curiosity and a fascination with the world around them and the wider world that will stay with them throughout their lives. Our Geography Curriculum is designed to be ambitious, inspiring and purposeful and will help children pose and provide answers to questions about different, interconnected aspects of human and physical geography.  We want to engage the children in a curriculum that will develop their cultural capital, their knowledge of the world around them and develop a sense of identity.

At Dee Point Primary School, our Geography Curriculum intends to:

• Provide children with a solid, sequenced set of geographical and enquiry skills that can be used in a wide variety of contexts
• Equip children with a broad and deep knowledge of the Earth’s resources and processes
• Provide children with opportunities to revisit core skills to secure long-term knowledge
• Engage children with imaginative and enjoyable learning that will develop their understanding of the world and their place in it
• Challenge them to think critically about real-world contemporary issues
• Provide children with the critical thinking skills and cultural capital that will support them throughout their lives
• Encourage them to show respect for their local, national and international environment and help them to become a global citizen.
