Autumn term- 2023

 

 

 

 

 

We are pleased to announce that we have been able to achieve the Bronze Primary Geography Quality Mark. This is due to the hard work of all staff when implementing the geography curriculum from Early Years to Year 6, whilst continuously building on skills and knowledge through the years.

Please click on this link The Academy at St James’ Geography Quality Mark Bronze application 2019-2020 to look at parts of our application and enjoy looking at all the wonderful geography which we have learnt so far!

 

Our geography lead was also asked to present for Digimaps and how we have successfully used Digimaps to support the learning of our children.  The presentation is on Youtube and you can access the video by using the link below.
