GEOGRAPHY CURRICULUM TALENT AWARD DECEMBER 2021

All the teachers were asked to think carefully and then nominate a pupil from each year group that has demonstrated excellence in  Geography.

Teachers considered the Lane End skills and attributes of Amazing Geographers that we want to develop in our children.

They were to put forward pupils that show a real flair for the subject, are working hard with determination to build their knowledge, skills and understanding in that curriculum area, and work with passion and enthusiasm. They were to chose children that were a learning role model for others, and deserved the recognition for this.

Then the final nominations were in and the the overall winner chosen.

Geography at Lane End Primary School

Geography Champion

 

Mrs McKittrick is our subject champion for Geography here at Lane End. She is passionate about this area of the curriculum  - and is determined to make learning in Geography come 'alive' so that our children are engaged and enthused about it. She has thought carefully about the design of the Lane End Geography curriculum and has built learning themes and topics that are to be taught in each year group that covers all aspects of the National Curriculum and meets the needs of our learners. 

 

Our children will learn a breadth of geographical knowledge, acquire geographical vocabulary and understanding, develop and apply their geographical skills each year as they move through school. Mrs McKittrick believes that our children should learn in depth about their own locality, and understand where this fits in the wider world picture. She wants them to experience and build fieldwork skills, and see how learning in Geography is an important part of all our everyday lives.

 

Below is the broad overview of our Lane End Geography curriculum. Mrs McKittrick has included a short summary of what the curriculum content each topic or theme covers, and then highlights the key objectives the children will work towards in each year group. These key objectives develop the children's knowledge, skills, understanding, and build and progress each year.

 

There is also an example of a topic 'Guide on a Page'. Here you will see some of the key  geographical knowledge and vocabulary they will learn and understand through the work they do.
