Why Study? Statistics show that compared to other subjects, Geography graduates are among the most employable. This is likely because they possess a wide range of transferable skills that employers look for. Further to this, ALevel Geography encourages students to critically consider information from a broad range of sources. This developing ‘geographic literacy’ is a fantastic skill for students to have as they begin to engage with higher education, the workplace and the wider global community. At A-Level, Geography is a combination of many aspects of the discipline, including geophysics, sociology, geopolitics, climatology, international relations and oceanography. Through these studies, SFH6 Geography students are prepared to undertake further, related, study at degree-level. Not only this, but through the study of A-Level Geography the doors to many different career options are opened, such as: resource management, geophysics, town planning, conservation, government, leisure management, education, journalism, politics, and International development.
