At St Gregory's, we offer the children a broad and balanced curriculum, which builds on their knowledge, skills and understanding of geography each year.
Through the use of visitors and visits, high quality resources and well planned lessons, children will leave St Gregory's with the knowledge of places and environments throughout the world, and an understanding of how people affect the environment and the world we live in.
Children will also build on a range of investigative and problem solving skills both inside and outside the classroom.
