Geography Promotional Video
This excellent video was produced to promote geography at Barking Abbey School, a Specialist Sports and Humanities College in Greater London. It was produced by Stuart, their multimedia wizard, along with Pete Flaxman and other staff and students from the geography department. Thanks to Pete and the school for permission to share the video on this website. Please feel free to use it at your own open evenings, with parents, governors, your leadership team or at options evenings.
