  1. Global Connections: Trade, Resources and Economic ActivityExplore how natural resources are spread across the world, why countries trade with each other, and how these global connections shape everyday life — from the food on your plate to the phone in your pocket.
  2. Comparing Our World: UK, Europe and the AmericasChildren compare three regions — a UK region, a European region and an American region — examining physical geography, climate, land use, settlement patterns and economic activity, while practising six-figure grid references and OS map skills.
  3. Navigating the World: Advanced Map and Globe SkillsChildren learn to use latitude and longitude, the Greenwich Meridian, hemispheres, time zones and Ordnance Survey grid references to locate and describe places on Earth with precision.
  4. Geography in the Field: Investigating Our PlaceChildren discover what geographical fieldwork really means, then plan, carry out and evaluate a mini enquiry in their local area. They learn how to write a focused geographical question, choose the right data-collection tools, record measurements accurately, and present findings clearly — just like real geographers do.
