Holme Junior & Infant School

Geography

Geography Leader: Mr Bond

At Holme Junior & Infant School we believe that Geography helps to provoke and provide answers to questions about the natural and human aspects of the world. Children are encouraged to develop a greater understanding and knowledge of the world, as well as their place in it. The geography curriculum at Holme enables children to develop knowledge and skills that are transferable to other curriculum areas which can and are used to promote their spiritual, moral, social, and cultural development. Geography is, by nature, an investigative subject, which develops an understanding of concepts, knowledge, and skills. We seek to inspire in children a curiosity and fascination about the world and its people which will remain with them for the rest of their lives; to promote the children’s interest and understanding of diverse places, people, resources, and human environments, together with a deep understanding of the Earth’s key physical and human processes. The curriculum is designed to develop knowledge and skills that are progressive, as well as transferable throughout their time at Holme and also to their further education and beyond.
