Geography
Our vision
At Park Hill we understand that geography is the key to our future and how a deepening understanding of the subject knowledge can have an immense impact on our children’s future. Hence, we have introduced threshold concepts, which are the key concepts covered in our curriculum consistently across all the year groups.
Children are consistently encouraged to read, research, use geographical vocabulary and provided with various resources like knowledge organisers, four point compasses, maps and atlases to develop their skills. To get children excited and curious about their geography, we create opportunities for them to share their knowledge in a debate or quizzes. Teachers plan cross-curriculum lessons involving geography, DT, English and art, providing children with an opportunity to research and understand various aspects of a concept or country and its influence on the future.
