Geography

At Patcham High School, geography helps students develop the cognitive and analytical skills to orientate themselves within a changing world.

Through studying a broad range of topics on local, national and international levels, students will be able to understand the geographical challenges faced by people in a rapidly changing and fragile world. We aim to give students the skills to enable them to become active and informed citizens, who recognise the impact that their own choices can and will make on the world around them.

Why our students love Geography…

“I like geography because it teaches us about why our local and international environment is the way it is and how this can affect us.”

“Geography always gives me a sense of the world and other countries.”

“I would love to travel the world, and geography gives me a sense of travelling and exploring.”

“I’m interested in learning about events around the world”

“It’s good to learn about things around the world and what’s going on.”

“I like how we get to learn about different places in the world and how different towns and cities are to our own.”

“I like learning about physical geography as we learn about the different reliefs and get to see how the world around us has been shaped.”

“I love geography because I care about the planet.”
