Geography

At Goodmayes Primary School, we value Geography as an important part of the National Curriculum, providing a broad, balanced and differentiated curriculum; ensuring the progressive development of geographical concepts, knowledge and skills; and for the children to develop a love for geography. Geography education should be fully inclusive to every child and we aim to equip children with geographical skills to develop their knowledge through studying places, people and natural and human environments. This will support the development of children’s understanding of the Earth’s human and physical forms and processes. We want children to enjoy and love learning about geography by gaining this knowledge and skills, not just through experiences in the classroom, but also with the use of fieldwork and educational visits.
