Intent
The Geography curriculum is delivered through an engaging creative curriculum approach of Topic based learning.
In St. Margaret Mary’s we want to inspire in pupils a curiosity and fascination about the world and its people that will remain with them for the rest of their lives. Our learners develop knowledge about the world, the United Kingdom and their locality.
Implementation
In St. Margaret Mary’s, Geography is delivered through ‘The Voyagers’ scheme of work which allows children to learn and progress through the knowledge and skills in a variety of units whilst ensuring National Curriculum objectives are fully met.
To ensure planning for progression, specific units within the scheme are designated to Year One and Year Two.
