Curriculum Intent
Through Geography at Pickering Community Infant and Nursery School we intend to stimulate and inspire a curiosity within our children about the world in which we live and their place within it. As a school, we recognise the importance of our children having an individual sense of identity and belonging, by developing an understanding of their local area, and extending this to the wider world. Through the study of carefully chosen topics and case studies, we aim to develop our children’s desire and ability to ask questions and seek answers.
Geography is taught through a thematic approach, which includes a range of Geography based themes about our local area and areas beyond our own locality. Further details can be found in our curriculum documents at the bottom of this page. Our work in Geography is underpinned by fieldwork both locally and focused work further afield.
