Geography

A Level Geography covers both the physical and human environments, and the complex interaction of processes that
shape our world. Studying Geography will allow you to understand processes and landscapes that others take for granted. The broad nature of the course means you will always find something that interests you, and the skills you learn are widely applicable as you move onto further study. 

Every year students who take A Level Geography apply to study Geography and Geography-related degrees at university and higher education level.

In the past few years Geography has been used as a facilitating subject by students successfully applying to study in areas as diverse as Law, Business and Physiotherapy, as well as those accepted onto apprenticeships.
