National Curriculum Aims
In Key Stage 1, the National Curriculum aims to develop knowledge about the world, the United Kingdom and their locality. Children should be able to use geographical vocabulary relating to human and physical geography and begin to use geographical skills to study the local area.
In Key Stage 2, the National Curriculum aims to extend their knowledge and understanding beyond the local area to include the United Kingdom and Europe, North and South America. Children should be able to identify and explain key human and physical features. They should develop their use of geographical knowledge, understanding and skills to enhance their locational and place knowledge.
Our Vision at Perton primary Academy
Our vision is to inspire children to develop a curiosity and fascination about the world, enabling them to understand human impact on the world and consider their role regarding this in the future.
Our curriculum enables children to develop place and locational knowledge of different cities, countries and continents. Children will be able to identify and discuss key human and physical features of these places and compare them. We conduct a local study of Perton to develop children’s locational knowledge and geographical skills.
