Geography
The geography curriculum at Brookfield is designed to inspire curiosity and a lifelong fascination with the world and its people. Children begin with their home and immediate environment, gradually building their understanding of Britain, Europe, and the wider world through thematic and regional studies. Our curriculum follows the four key areas of geographical knowledge – place knowledge, locational knowledge, human and physical geography, and geographical skills – to ensure full coverage of the National Curriculum.
We go beyond these expectations with a rigorous curriculum that is broad in scope, carefully sequenced, and balances both substantive and disciplinary knowledge. This approach ensures children not only meet but exceed the experiences and expectations of the National Curriculum. By the time they leave Brookfield, pupils have developed expert map skills, the ability to ask meaningful geographical questions, and a strong understanding of their place in the world. This allows them to think critically, make connections across their learning, and engage with the world as informed, active global citizens.
