pupils to develop their geographical skills, knowledge and
understanding as they become engaged and accomplished geographers, ready
for the demands of GCSE.

provide a solid foundation for the 2016 GCSE specifications, this
Student Book takes an enquiry-based approach to learning within each
unit and lesson.

KS3 scheme of work: this coherent single-book course covers the latest
National Curriculum content, providing 150 ready-made lessons that can
be used flexibly for a two or three-year KS3
- Build and improve
the geographical knowledge and skills that pupils need: every
double-page spread represents a lesson, with rich geographical data and
place contexts for pupils to interpret, analyse andevaluate
- Lay
firm foundations for GCSE: key vocabulary, command words and concepts
are introduced gradually, preparing pupils for the content and question
types they will encounter at GCSE, with a particular focus on analysis
and evaluation questions
- Effectively assess, measure and
demonstrate progress: formative assessments throughout each lesson and
summative end-of-unit reviews include questions that show whether pupils
are 'working towards', 'meeting' or 'exceeding' expectations
-
Encourage pupils to check and drive their own progress: learning
objectives and end-of-unit learning outcomes help pupils reflect on
their learning and make connections between key concepts and skills
throughout the course
