Geography helps us understand the world around us, whether that be researching the recent volcanic eruption in Chile, evaluating the effectiveness of the recent New Street Station development, or using geographical information systems (GIS) to understand how deforestation has affected large areas of South America. The work of geographers across the globe is both exciting and pivotal to the functioning of the planet as we know it. The A-Level Geography will enable you to develop a specialist knowledge on a wide variety of contemporary themes; you only need to turn on the news to understand how geography plays a large part in our everyday lives. As well as this specialist knowledge, A-Level geography will also provide numerous opportunities to develop your fieldwork skills, as changes to the curriculum now ensure that a minimum of two days fieldwork is completed. The Geography A-Level covers both the human and physical environment, and the complex interconnections which run between them. Further to this, the knowledge you gain will be directly applicable to a host of real world settings, helping us understand how our actions as individuals, and as part of the wider human race, can have a serious and lasting impact on the world around us.
