Curriculum and Progression
The Geography progression documents have been created to ensure that incremental, progressive steps are taught over time to enable pupils to meet the end of Key Stage Attainment Targets of the National Curriculum whilst also providing a much broader, richer curriculum offer than these assessment statements cover.
The learning steps are sequenced in a spiral curriculum through each year group, with opportunities to recap and embed previous learning – this ensures that knowledge is retained and built upon, making learning ‘sticky’. The specific (Tier 3) vocabulary linked to Geography is built into the progression document; pupils are therefore able to understand this subject specific language within context and apply it beyond the subject where appropriate. Geography has many cross curricular links, but even when taught through a topic, there is a distinct Geography thread – pupils will know which subject they are learning about.
