Further Reading

Studying geography should bring the world alive. Geography is about making connections. Students are encouraged to read a quality newspaper, follow key decision makers and organisations on Social Media. Geography is about looking up and being aware about what is happening now and what might happen in the future – both good and bad. It is also about studying what makes human and physical systems work well… and what makes them break down.
