Geography

Welcome to the Geography Department at UCS, where from the classroom, our students explore the world and beyond.

OUR VISION

​The Geography department at UCS Bolton creates opportunities for all by creating an environment in which students enjoy their geography lessons through a purposeful, challenging and engaging curriculum.  We are committed to providing an inclusive, stimulating and inspiring environment, which sparks student curiosity and supports their learning, which is embedded by high expectations. Students will explore their own place within the world and their values and responsibilities to others, to the environment and to the sustainability of our planet.

We aim to encourage student's critical thinking and questioning skills to develop an interest and sense of wonder about the human and physical features of our world. Students gain the necessary skills to navigate a successful future.
