At Ryelands, we believe that a high-quality geography education should inspire in pupils a curiosity and fascination about the world and its people that will remain with them for the rest of their lives. Teaching should equip pupils with knowledge about diverse places, people, resources and natural and human environments. Geographical knowledge provides the tools and approaches that explain how the Earth’s features at different scales are shaped, interconnected and change over time. At Ryelands, we centre our geographical learning on our locality utilising the opportunities it provides. We place an emphasis on ‘place-based learning’ to provide our pupils with aspirational opportunities using real life skills and to place importance on the ‘stickability’ of knowledge.
