The aims are to enable students to:
(a) understand the Earth they inhabit, and enable them to recognise and interpret, from a spatial perspective, the arrangement of phenomena and features on Earth, the processes at work, the interactions that occur, the changes that result, and the issues and management responses that arise;
(b) develop the general intellectual capacity and generic skills needed for lifelong learning through geographical enquiry, and the ability to apply these in life situations;
(c) appreciate the wonder, interdependence and fragility of the local and global environment, and the importance of promoting sustainable development
