Colman Infant and Junior School

Geography

About Our Geography Curriculum

It is the intent of the curriculum to:

  • build knowledge about the local community, the United Kingdom and the wider world
  • build knowledge about key geographical features
  • develop skills that allow them to locate and compare different localities near and far

Geography is taught using the structure and sequence of CUSP in two blocks each half term. Lessons will include key tier III vocabulary to build children’s skills working with geographical information. Lessons will revisit past learning, introduce new knowledge and engage children in activity participation in their learning. Children will be assessed in their learning through low stakes quizzing or other measures.

Reception Open Event | Friday 23rd May 2025

We would love to invite parents and Reception age children for 2025/26 to come and visit our amazing Early Years Provision and meet our wonderful staff! 

We have invested extensively in Early Years and are exceptionally proud to be able to offer your child the best possible start to their school journey.

You're welcome to bring your child along as they can take part in various activities in and outside of the classrooms -we want them to start feeling familiar with staff and the environment .  

We understand that starting school is a time of mixed emotions for children and parents and we want to offer new parents as well as parents considering a place at Colman Infant School, the opportunity to come and spend some time with us. We are keen to get to know you and your child ahead of their transition to school.
