Geography

The Geography Department is located on the ground floor in Little Cloister House near the entrance to the Cathedral cloisters. Little Cloister House is shared with the History Department located on the first floor.

Our aim is to encourage students to work as hard as they can and to take pride in what they are doing. We want young people to study Geography because they have a genuine curiosity about the world around them together with a desire to make the world a better place.

All rooms have a computer that is linked to the internet and there is also a projector in one room. We have a wide range of up to date reference books and magazines that senior students are encouraged to use for researching topics especially linked to essay topics in the Upper Sixth.

We also run a number of trips linked to what is taught in the classroom from a short residential visit to Snowdonia in the Upper Sixth to visits to Weston Super Mare and the Big Pit in Key Stage Three.
