Geography is an interesting and fun subject that broadens your awareness of the world and the ways it can affects us.
More locally, you will consider the pressure of development on our coastline and ways in which we can manage this to minimise the impact on the natural environment. You will also investigate run-down urban and rural areas, and suggest how we can rebrand their economies. Both of these topics provide lots of opportunities for local fi eldwork.
Jessie Teague ” 33 A level AS & A2 100% exam GEOGRAPHY
Everything is assessed by exams. There is no formal coursework, however you will carry out practical and fi eldwork investigations where you will develop a wide range of skills including research, data collection, mapping, graphing, statistics and ICT.
The huge variety of up-to-date knowledge and skills possessed by Geographers makes us very employable in many different careers, such as tourism, social work, local government, planning, transport, marketing, management, the environment, and many more. Geography is also a highly valued subject for any university degree course.
The Geography syllabus is so varied and thought-provoking that there is guaranteed to be something that appeals to everyone. Many of today’s major global issues are investigated, including the disparity between rich and poor nations, superpowers, trade, multi-national companies, new technology, migration, and rapid urbanisation. You will also look at the threats posed to humans by natural hazards, reduction in biodiversity, global warming and climate change.
