Rose Hill Primary School

                            "Geography’s value in the Early Years and right through primary education is that it enables pupils to make greater sense of, and act more thoughtfully about, both where they live and the wider world.” 
                                                                                                       Simon Catling      “Leading Primary Geography”

At Rose Hill, the geography curriculum aims to inspire in pupils a curiosity and fascination about the world and its people.

Classroom experiences equip pupils with knowledge about diverse places, people and human environments, together with a deep understanding of the earth’s key physical and human processes.

The children will develop a range of geographical and personal skills through their work in this subject, for example organising and running fieldwork projects.  There will be space for children to ask and explore their own geographical questions.

Geography is taught in two cycles - Cycle A and Cycle B which is a two year rolling programme to ensure that all children progress through Geographical knowledge and skills by the time that they leave each key stage.
