The study of geography involves our pupils exploring the relationship and interactions between people and the environments in which they live and upon which they and all life on Earth depends. Many of the pupils who now attend our school will live to see the next century and inhabit a world of 11 billion people. The many opportunities and challenges that will arise during their lifetime will be very much about geography at personal, national and global scales. What we intend pupils to learn in geography reflects this throughout the curriculum. We have established a school curriculum plan for geography as an entitlement for all pupils that is aspirational, logical, relevant, well sequenced and progressive.

At Southfields, we have a wide representation of different nationalities, races, religions and cultures among our pupils. We aim to embrace this for the benefit of our children as a whole by harnessing this real-world experience and knowledge. We also aim to share the unique culture and geography of our islands, bearing in mind that the United Kingdom is a new home to a large proportion of our pupils.
