Key Stage 3 Geography, sequenced

Year 7 · Year 8 · Year 9 · 18 units in all

Six half-termly units an academic year, set out as one sequence table rather than a page per lesson. Each year is written backwards from what the next one states it assumes on entry, so Year 7 ends where Year 8 needs it to start and nothing is taught twice by accident. Every unit maps to the statutory content. Most departments just call it a SOW.

Year 7 Geography Scheme of Work

Six half-termly units across one academic year. The two map units come first because everything after them assumes both: a mental map of the world, and the ability to read a real map of a real place. The physical processes then follow in the order that lets each explain the last.

  1. 1a Thinking Like a Geographer: The World, and Where Things Are
  2. 1b Ordnance Survey: Reading the Ground
  3. 2a Restless Earth: Geological Time and Plate Tectonics
  4. 2b Rocks, Weathering and Soils: What the Ground Is Made Of
  5. 3a Weather and Climate: Why It Is Like That Here
  6. 3b Fieldwork One: The Ground You Stand On

Geography · Key Stage 3 £3.99

Year 8 Geography Scheme of Work

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.

  1. 1a Africa: A Continent, Not a Country
  2. 1b A Region in Africa: The Nile Basin
  3. 2a Population and Urbanisation: Where Everyone Is Going
  4. 2b Asia: Russia, China and India
  5. 3a A Region in Asia: The Ganges Basin, and What It Shares with the Nile
  6. 3b Fieldwork Two: Rivers, Coasts and Measuring the Real Thing

Geography · Key Stage 3 £3.99

Year 9 Geography Scheme of Work

Six half-termly units across one academic year. Glaciation and the climate record come first, so that the interaction unit later in the year can ask about rate rather than about whether the climate changes. The year ends with the student's own enquiry.

  1. 1a Ice and Time: Glaciation and the Climate Since the Ice Age
  2. 1b Development and the Global Economy
  3. 2a The Middle East: Resources, Water and Power
  4. 2b Extremes: Polar Regions and Hot Deserts
  5. 3a Interacting Systems: Where People and Nature Meet
  6. 3b Fieldwork Three: Your Own Question, and the Tools to Answer It
