Description:
From September 2008, you will be expected to take on the new key stage 3 Programme of Study in your school. But what will this mean? How should you interpret the new requirements?
Will you need to plan and resource a completely new set of courses and schemes of work for years 7, 8 and 9? Or can you just amend your existing plans and continue much as before?
Could you be really creative and design a very different-looking KS3?
How can you ensure that the geography curriculum is stimulating, up-to-date and absolutely right for your pupils, while still, of course, meeting national requirements?
Help is at hand! Planning Your KS3 Geography Curriculum is designed to help you answer these questions and so involve you in curriculum development.
Comments about the book
'Your 'Planning' book is brilliant. I read it on train journeys to and from London this week after I had attended the south-east regional training event for KS3 planning last Tuesday, run by CfBT. I'm no longer in a position where I will have to write a new geography scheme of work, but I will find your book enormously helpful in explaining the new curriculum to my PGCE students, who will be contributing to the new curriculum.
Thanks for a very, very helpful publication.'
