Geography

Our aim at Thornbury Primary School is to inspire children’s curiosity, interest and appreciation for the world that we live in. We intend to equip children with the geographical knowledge to develop their skills through studies of places, people and natural and human environments.

A high-quality geography education inspires in pupils, a curiosity and fascination about the world and its people that will remain with them for the rest of their lives. Our teaching aims to equip pupils with knowledge about diverse places, people, resources and natural and human environments, together with a deep understanding of the Earth’s key physical and human processes. In our curriculum, we use our stunning local environment to enhance our curriculum. We learn about how our oceans and seas are connected through the Oceans Curriculum and our role in protecting the oceans for future generations to come.
