We believe that through the exposure to a range of diverse environments and issues, our children will become **knowledgable** and **aspirational**, competent geographers. By building on the pupils’ knowledge of diverse places, people, resources, we reveal the interrelationship between natural and human features across the world. We inspire the children through quality first teaching and teach them to think like geographers. We model and encourage them to ask questions and seek answers. We promote that it is great to be **inquisitive**. Our pupils will be taught and be exposed to a range of technical vocabulary allowing them to **articulate** their ideas clearly. At Hillary, we teach a range of engaging topics in which children will investigate scientific phenomena in the real world: the children will be exposed to looking at scientists who have impacted the world and what makes them unique**. The inspiring Geography curriculum will allow the children to **thrive** and experience things first hand and develop their love of Geography, creating well-versed citizens who have love and respect for the world around them. ### Curriculum Overviews Yearly overview for Geography 87 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/hillary-primary-school/files/documents/geography_yearly_subject_overview.pdf) Progression of Skills for Geography 103 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/hillary-primary-school/files/documents/progression_of_skills_geography_for_website.pdf) #### Useful Websites - [Oddizzi](https://www.oddizzi.com/) - [National Geographic Kids](https://kids.nationalgeographic.com/) - [Geographical Association](https://www.geography.org.uk/) ### Key Information - [Our School Vision](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/our-school-vision) - [Admissions](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/admissions) - [Attendance](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/attendance) - [Awards](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/awards) - [British Values](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/british-values) - [Curriculum](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/curriculum) - [Art](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/curriculum/art) - [Computing](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/curriculum/computing) - [Design Technology](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/curriculum/design-technology) - [English](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/curriculum/english) - [EYFS](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/curriculum/eyfs) - [Geography](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/curriculum/geography) - [History](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/curriculum/history) - [Maths](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/curriculum/maths) - [Modern Foreign Language](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/curriculum/modern-foreign-language) - [Music](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/curriculum/music) - [Oracy](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/curriculum/oracy) - [Phonics](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/curriculum/phonics) - [PSHE](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/curriculum/pshe) - [Physical Education](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/curriculum/physical-education) - [Religious Education](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/curriculum/religious-education) - [Science](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/curriculum/science) - [Financial Benchmarking](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/financial-benchmarking) - [First Aid](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/first-aid) - [GDPR, Privacy Notices, FOI & SAR](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/gdpr-privacy-notices-foi-sar) - [Health & Wellbeing](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/health-and-wellbeing) - [Ofsted & Performance Data](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/ofsted-and-performance-data) - [PE & Sport Premium](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/pe-and-sport-premium) - [Policies](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/policies) - [Pupil Premium](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/pupil-premium) - [Safeguarding](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/safeguarding) - [SEND & Makaton](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/send) - [School Development Priorities](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/key-information/school-development-priorities) [ ![palfrey infant school](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/images/logo/Hillary_Primary_School-white.png) ](https://hillary.walsall.sch.uk/) [HillaryPrimarySchool](https://www.facebook.com/HillaryPrimarySchool#) [@PrimaryHillary](https://x.com/@PrimaryHillary) © Hillary Primary School.
