Key Stage 5

The aims of the Geography WJEC AS and A level specifications are designed to encourage students to:

develop and apply their understanding of geographical concepts and processes to understand and interpret our changing world;
develop their awareness of the complexity of interactions within and between societies, economies, cultures and environments at scales from local to global;
develop as global citizens who recognise the challenges of sustainability and the implications for their own and others' lives;
improve as critical and reflective learners aware of the importance of attitudes and values, including their own;
become adept in the use and application of skills and new technologies through their geographical studies both in and outside the classroom;
be inspired by the world around them, and gain enjoyment and satisfaction from their geographical studies and understand their relevance.
