Geography field trip for year 10
June 2022
As part of the GCSE Geography course, students are required to undertake a fieldwork enquiry where they have the opportunity to explore physical and human processes and interactions between them. The fieldwork enquiry will be assessed in Component 3 of the Geography GCSE examination in June 2023 and will make up 30% of the final result. In June, 79 Year 10 Geography students took part in a geographical enquiry in Milford on Sea, Hampshire. This is a perfect location to study the physical and human geography of our dynamic coastline. They investigated the sustainability of coastal management strategies along this dynamic stretch of coastline. The students were able to see geography in action and develop their knowledge and understanding of essential fieldwork skills as well as sample the delights of local Hampshire ice cream!
