The Geography Department is run by Mr. Still and Mr. McCrae. We both joined the school in September 2008. Since that time the department has undergone a radical overhaul.

This includes:

  • Brand new teaching classrooms fully equiped with interactive whiteboards
  • Embracing new technologies for use in the classroom
  • Creating a website for student revision at both KS3 and KS4
  • Creating a blog to show the work that is being done in the department
  • Using both of the above to share resources with fellow teachers
  • Using new methods of ICT for teaching such as:
    • Google Earth
    • Wikis
    • Blogs
    • Deep zoom
