Leading Your Subject: Creating, Developing, Reviewing - Geography

Aims

To support geography leads in creating, developing and reviewing geography provision across the primary range. It will be applicable for both new and experienced leads. 

Overview

This three-part programme for Geography coordinators looks at all aspects of curriculum design and delivery, in the context of overarching views of excellent curriculum design and Ofsted’s 2019 Inspection Framework.

The first live session has already been held, but we would still like to give subject leads who may have missed this session the opportunity to sign up for the program. A recording of the first session, which can then be watched on-demand, will be made available to you once you have registered. Session 2, which was always intended to be delivered on-demand, will follow and you will then be able to join the final session live over Zoom.

Each half-day session will cover:

Session 1 (originally held live over Zoom, will now be available to watch on demand)

• How Ofsted defines a Geography ‘curriculum’
• Creating an exciting, effective, connected and pupil-focused curriculum in Geography
• Sharing experiences of Geography delivery from across the UK

Session 2 (on-demand recording to support reflection and activities)

• Sharing and embedding expectations for Geography
• Monitoring strategies that focus on improvement in Geography
• What is ‘cultural capital’ in Geography, and how do we deliver it?

Session 3 (live via Zoom)

• Creating challenge in a mastery curriculum for Geography
• Ensuring consistency in Geography provision
• Establishing and evidencing impact

Geography is destiny
