At Ivanhoe Primary Academy, we believe that a rich geography curriculum is essential for our children, as geography plays a crucial part in helping children to understand their place in the world and how their actions can influence the human and physical environment. It should inspire a curiosity and a fascination for world and its people that will stay with them throughout their lives.

Geography teaching needs to provide pupils with knowledge about the Human and Physical environment and the interactions between these. We will also equip children with the skills needed to gather and interpret information. Our geography curriculum will be provided through an enquiry approach giving children the ability to ask relevant questions. Geography is a multi-disciplined subject with strong roots in science and mathematics, children will collect data, analyse it and will be able to reach conclusions about their findings.
