Miss E McFarland – Lead Teacher

Intent

Our geography curriculum at Holy Cross has been structured around a series of big ideas, which range from ‘dangers and disasters’, to ‘global development’ and ‘ice environments’- this aims to ensure that our curriculum is broad and balanced.  Through exploring one place-based ‘big idea’ each term pupils will become experts in a range of challenging and ambitious sub-disciplines and master key geographical skills.  By following this approach, we aim to equip all pupils, regardless of academic ability or background, with foundation skills and agency, so that they can delve deeper into the wide-ranging discipline that is geography.  Only then can pupils understand, appreciate and protect the world that God has created for us.
