Year 8 Geography Scheme of Work — KS3 PDF
Six half-termly units across one academic year. The two statutory region studies are both great river basins — the Nile and the Ganges — chosen so that similarities, differences and links can actually be argued rather than listed.
- 1aAfrica: A Continent, Not a Country
- 1bA Region in Africa: The Nile Basin
- 2aPopulation and Urbanisation: Where Everyone Is Going
- 2bAsia: Russia, China and India
- 3aA Region in Asia: The Ganges Basin, and What It Shares with the Nile
- 3bFieldwork Two: Rivers, Coasts and Measuring the Real Thing

Ten sections per unit, in the same order every time. One row per lesson. Six units: two that locate the statutory focus regions, two that are the statutory region studies, one on population and urbanisation, and one that takes the class to a river.
Every unit carries a structured case study, an end-of-unit assessment, a knowledge organiser, named map, GIS and data tasks, and the geographical concepts it is built on. Every statistic is given with its source and the year it refers to.
