GEOGRAPHY

WHAT IS OUR ETHOS?

What is our ethos?

The Geography and Geology departments seek to foster a climate in which all students benefit from a wide range of positive learning experiences as they study people and places within our world developing powerful knowledge and cultural capital. Lessons and fieldwork are designed to inspire and develop long lasting knowledge and understanding of the world and the people and landscapes within it.

Through the study of geography students will be empowered to leave with the resilience and respect needed to be global citizens and with the knowledge to enable them to become adept researchers, problem solvers, critical thinkers, communicators, team players and well-rounded individuals. We seek to inspire and instil a curiosity and fascination about the world and its people which will remain with them for the rest of their lives.
