Geography at Bosbury

Being a Geographer at Bosbury CE Primary School

Geography gives pupils an understanding of the world around them, its environments, places near and far, and the processes that create and affect them.

At Bosbury, we are excited to find out more about our world in the classroom and experience practical fieldwork in our local area. We have strong links with our friends at the Tara School in Rwanda, which gives our children access to experiencing daily life in different parts of the world. With climate change, human impact and the environment part of our curriculum, our children ask big questions about the world they live in.

- Mrs. K Turnbull (Bosbury CE Primary School Geography Lead)

At Bosbury Primary School, Geography enables children to develop their understanding of the physical and human characteristics of their world. Children are inspired by exciting and relevant topics, and can see a link with Geography in school and their own futures. They will study diverse places across the globe, and will compare these places with their own environment. Children will, in turn, develop a passion of the world and a sense of responsibility for sustaining it.

At Bosbury children develop their knowledge of the location of places on a local, national, and global scale. Teaching is inventive and inspiring with drivers aimed at capturing children’s enthusiasm for real life experiences.
