Geography combines the study of both social and natural science. During the course you’ll look at the earth and its atmosphere, as well as how human activity can affect them. You’ll also look deeper in to the natural environment and how human culture interacts with different landscapes. The course will provide you with an understanding of where things are found, why they are there and how they can develop over time.

Course Structure

Modules include: Water and carbon cycles, Hot desert, coastal and glacial systems, Hazards, Ecosystems, Contemporary urban environments.

Typically, you will study this course alongside 2 or 3 other A-Level subjects. You can apply for any A-Level combination, however, please be aware that not all subject combinations can be guaranteed. Timetabling constraints mean that some subjects may run at the same time, making it difficult to accommodate every combination. Our team will discuss any clashes with you at the point of enrolment, and we’ll work with you to discuss alternatives where required.

It is not possible to study a combination of A-Level and vocational or T-Level courses together. These pathways are designed differently making it impractical to deliver them side by side.
