Fieldwork is an essential component of our geography course and is an ideal setting in which to develop teamwork and leadership skills.
The Geography Department recognises the value of fieldwork and we have taken all the available time allotted to make use of this with a variety of topics and locations to give the pupils a taste of their environment. We don’t just look at the world outside; we go and explore it to fully appreciate its complexities and interrelationships. At GCSE and A-level, students participate in fieldwork during residential trips to the Bala, Wales and North Yorkshire, whereas, at Key Stage 3, fieldwork takes place locally. Regular use is made of the ideal fieldtrip location – our own school site – for all Key Stages.
