Geography

Subject Intent

What is our intent for all children to achieve in this subject?

At St Mark’s, we aim to provide a high-quality geography curriculum to inspire, challenge and engage children to understand more about the world around them.

We aim to teach key concepts such as place, space, scale, environment, interconnections and physical and human processes to ensure children develop their disciplinary and substantive knowledge. This will help to provide children opportunities for field world and developing key geographical skills to inspire a love of learning.

The intent for geography at St Mark’s is to deliver the national curriculum in an engaging, exciting way. An engaging and active geography curriculum can help to develop connections through people and events in different places and cultures.
