Earth is an amazing planet, with vast oceans, high mountains, deep lakes, and dry deserts. Through our geography curriculum, we aim to inspire our children to find out more about the world we live in and the people that inhabit it. By studying both physical and human geography, we want our children to understand the relationship between the earth and the people that inhabit it. We want pupils to understand the impact that humans have on the planet and likewise the impact that the environment can have on our lives.

At Salterlee we have mixed class teaching. We ensure every pupil receives a broad and balanced curriculum that not only meets but enhances the requirements of the national curriculum. To achieve this, each classes curriculum content is delivered in year bands (Band A and Band B).

Below are the year bands for the following academic years:

Academic Year 24/25 – Band A

Academic Year 25/26 – Band B

Each curriculum overview will identify which curriculum content is taught in which year band. This ensures all pupils study the full range of curriculum (both Band A and Band B) content of each academic subject.

This year is a Band A Year
