Careers
Information
Geography is a very diverse subject that can take students into any career pathway
that they choose. It is an excellent facilitating GCSE subject that links aspects of other
GCSE subjects studied into one. The skills students will learn include; independent
learning, communication skills, interpreting data, problem solving, evaluating
information, decision making and the analysis of different resources. A geographer
will develop the skills to be able to think creatively and scientifically and to examine
both short and long term options for the challenges that face us.
All careers can lead from Geography as it is a facilitating subject.
Careers include: meteorology, landscape architecture, environmental management,
travel and tourism and geology.
Resources
We will use a range of textbooks and support materials to deliver the course, the main
one is the one endorsed by EDUQAS. Students are welcome to buy their own paper
copy to refer to at home, but this is not essential. The department has bought the
electronic version of each book which is accessible via links that have been sent out to
all students.
