Course summary

There has never been a better or more important time to study A-level Geography. Dealing with vital issues such as climate change, migration, the environment, social issues and natural hazards, A-level Geography is one of the most relevant subjects you could choose to study. Students at TCA will enjoy the scope of the material they cover in geography, the insights it can provide into the world around us and the highly contemporary nature of the issues it tackles. At TCA we follow the AQA specification, which is divided into two aspects; physical and human. There is also a non-examined assessment component, where students will have the opportunity to produce an investigation of their design based on a subject within geography that interests them. Geography is a highly respected academic A-level. As well as Geography-based degrees, it can support a wide range of other studies such as Biology, Business Studies and Economics.

Entry requirements

A minimum of 5 ‘good’ grades at GCSE (grades 9-4) and for A-level English, Maths and all Sciences, students are expected to have achieved at least a grade 6 at GCSE. For those students who have not achieved a grade 4 or above in English and/or Maths, they will be expected to retake a level 2 qualification in this subject during year 12. A grade 5 is required in all other subjects that students wish to study at A Level.
