Dallam Community Primary School

Oddizzi is a resource that both teachers and children use to find out more about their geography topic. It has planning and resources that link to the geography national curriculum. 

At Dallam Primary school we believe that Geography helps to provoke and provide answers to questions about the natural and human aspects of the world.  Children are encouraged to develop a greater understanding and knowledge of the world, as well as their place in it. The geography curriculum at Dallam enables children to develop skills, knowledge, empathy and experiences that are transferable to other curriculum areas. Geography is, by nature, an investigative subject, which develops and understanding of concepts, knowledge and skills. We seek to inspire in children a curiosity and fascination about the world and its people which will remain with them for the rest of their lives; to promote the children’s interest and understanding of diverse places, people, resources and natural and human environments, together with a deep understanding of the Earth’s key physical and human processes. We want them to question the impact we have on our world and be aware of current environmental and global issues. Thus developing responsible global citizens. 

The curriculum is designed to develop knowledge and skills that are progressive, as well as transferable, throughout their time at Dallam Primary and also to their further education and beyond.
