A little info about this class...
IGCSE Geography follows the IGCSE Cambridge 0976 Specification over two years. The course will equip students with the necessary knowledge, skills, confidence and exam preparation to take their IGCSE examination. The IGCSE Specification divides the course into three papers, negating the need to complete coursework or fieldwork.
You will study and investigate geographical themes and skills in human and physical geography. In your human geography lessons, you will cover a diverse range of topics, including population, settlement, tourism, the natural environment and economic development. In physical geography, you will study tectonics, rivers, the coast, weather and climate.
Optional independent learning activities will be provided weekly for you to complete.
You will be expected to do 1 – 2 hours of independent work each week.
For safeguarding purposes, each Zoom lesson includes a brief registration at the beginning which requires children to have their webcam switched on. If your child would like to join lessons but is anxious about this or needs to have their face covered during lessons for religious or any other reason please get in touch, and we can arrange an alternate method of registration for them.
The full content for IGCSE Geography Cambridge is covered in 24 months. Please be aware that all our GCSE level courses offer a rolling curriculum and cater for children with a wide range of abilities, previous knowledge/study and willingness to work independently. Although we cover the curriculum in the period stated, it is the parent’s responsibility to ensure that your child has covered and understood the entire syllabus, kept appropriate notes and has carried out exam practice before they sit their exam. Our teacher will give short exam practice throughout the course and teach the children how to answer the questions, but it is a good idea for your child to sit practice exam papers in the run-up to their actual exam. Our teachers are always happy to help and advise but please make sure you know what your child has studied and areas that need more work before they are ready to sit the exam.
