Geography
The Nature of Geography
Geography explores the relationship between the Earth and its people through the study of place, space and the environment.
Geographers ask the questions where and what; also how and why and, in the context of problems, how ought.
It forms a bridge between the physical and human sciences.
Study is done at local, regional, national, continental and global scales.
The Aims of Geography at the school
To stimulate interest in our surroundings and their variety.
To foster a sense of awe and wonder.
To help the development of informed concern about our environment and thereby to enhance pupils' sense of responsibility for the earth and its peoples.
