  3. 2aThe Middle East: Resources, Water and Power

Cover of Year 9 Geography Scheme of Work

Ten sections per unit, in the same order every time. One row per lesson. Six units: glaciation and the climate record, development and the four sectors, the Middle East, the polar and desert extremes, the interaction statement argued in full, and an independent enquiry.

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.

Written to
The statutory programme of study for key stage 3 geography (DfE, 2013)
