Geography

WATER, WATER EVERYWHERE

Water and its effects on landscapes and people, including the physical features of rivers [for example, flood plain] or coasts [for example, beach], and the processes of erosion and deposition that affect them. Water in the home and in everyday life. Rivers in Great Britain. Coastal towns and seaside resorts.

PEOPLE and PLACES

How settlements differ and change, including why they differ in size and character [for example, commuter village, seaside town], and an issue arising from changes in land use. Life in a village, a town and a city. Towns and cities in the United Kingdom. Using an atlas and finding out about maps.

CARING FOR OUR WORLD

Changes, both good and bad, in our environment [for example, traffic pollution, hedgerow loss, drought], and attempts to manage the environment sustainably [for example, by improving public transport, creating a new nature reserve, reducing water use]. The work of voluntary and other environmental organisations.
