Geography at King's Court
Our Vision
At King's Court, we inspire children to become curious, knowledgeable geographers with a strong understanding of the world and its people. Through a carefully sequenced curriculum from Early Years to Year 4, pupils develop a lifelong interest in geography and an appreciation of how people, places and environments are connected.
Our curriculum is built around key threshold concepts, enabling children to connect knowledge, develop geographical thinking and build strong, lasting understanding over time.

-
Investigate places and understand their physical and human features.
- Investigate patterns and understand how people and environments are connected.
