• Is Global Warming really happening?
• Are we having the worst floods ever recorded?
• What can be done about World migration and poverty?  
• Are we to blame for all of these? What can we do?

These questions and others are investigated along with an exploration into a question of your own interest.  If you’re serious about going places, this is the course for you!

All our geography teachers are passionate about geography.  We live our subject and travel the world to discover more.  Geography is an adventure that starts here and will last you a lifetime.

The subject is suitable for someone who has a genuine interest in global issues at all levels from local to international. You need to have a willingness to understand how the natural world ‘works’ and what part we, as individuals, play in the global closed system!
