Geography literally means to “write about the world”. During this A Level Geography course we will focus on a range of topics, both compulsory and optional, to help you develop your understanding of the world and those processes that underpin it. This will help you to write about your world. There is no requirement to have studied GCSE Geography, but if you have, you will find that A Level builds on the skills and knowledge that you have already developed. The skills that you have developed in Maths and Science will also support you through the course. Geography is an ever-changing subject, and this means that we can be at the forefront of changes to our world. It also means that we can develop our knowledge through current issues, and we will use these issues to support our knowledge as case studies. We will have the opportunity to study vastly different areas of the world, including the strongest storm to ever hit Fiji (or the Southern Hemisphere) – that only led to 44 deaths, compared to an earthquake, followed by a cholera outbreak, followed by a tropical storm, that led to around 220,000 deaths, and why these differences occur. We will look at how West Bromwich and the Jewellery Quarter have changed over time, and how globalisation affects every single person on the planet. During your time with us, you will develop your skills to discover as much as you can about our planet, the different systems that affect it and how that leads to the current issues that we see with our planet today, including increasing numbers of tropical storms, international conflicts, and the impacts of climate change.
All students studying A Levels should have at least five GCSEs at grade 9 - 5 in academic subjects, including English Language at grade 5. Two of these should be grade 6. Specifically for Geography, you will need GCSE Maths at grade 5 or above. It is not necessary to coursework module based on a fieldwork investigation, and have Geography GCSE two exams lasting two and a to study this subject at half hours. A Level.
