Geography

The Geography curriculum at Crawshaw aims to inspire our students with a curiosity and fascination about the world and its people that will remain with them for the rest of their lives.

Geography will equip pupils with knowledge about diverse places, people, resources and natural and human environments, together with a deep understanding of the Earth’s key physical and human processes. As students' progress, their growing knowledge about the world should help them to deepen their understanding of the interaction between physical and human processes, and of the formation and use of landscapes and environments. Geographical knowledge, understanding and skills provide the framework and approaches that explain how the Earth’s features at different scales are shaped, interconnected and change over time. It allows students to be inquisitive and critical in an increasingly complex world where our choices and actions may have repercussions for people and communities locally, nationally or internationally. Geographical themes help learners become more aware of the wider world and to have a sense of their own role as a responsible global citizen.
