Geography at Kingsacre
At Kingsacre Primary School our intention is that Geography education should inspire in children a curiosity and fascination about the world and its people that will remain with them for the rest of their lives. Our teaching helps children to developing a greater understanding of their place within the world. The curriculum at Kingsacre teaches skills and fieldwork with a focus on our wonderful local environment. Knowledge taught is vast and varied enabling children to become global citizens. Children are helped to understand about diverse places, people and environments together with a deep understanding of the Earth’s key physical and human processes.
