GEOGRAPHY
OUR VISION
As the world becomes increasingly globalised, few subjects can claim to be more relevant or applicable to twenty-first century citizens of the planet than geography. Our aim at Hatch End High School is to stimulate wonder for and appreciation of the world we live in. Students are given the opportunity to analyse the complex interactions between places and people, looking at where places are, how places and landscapes are formed, how people and their environment are interdependent, and how a diverse range of economies, societies and environments are interconnected. Whilst at Hatch End, students will be supported to engage critically with real world issues and apply their own geographical knowledge and understanding to make sense of the world around them. â¯We encourage our students to analyse all sorts of current topics from migration to climate change. Stretching our students to use a wide range of skills from research, data collection and GIS, to essay writing and presentation that will be invaluable for our students in today’s rapidly changing world.
