Weekend reading recs!

What makes geography inherently "sticky"?

Our latest journal editorial by Dr Paula Owens introduces the concept of Sticky Geography : designing purposeful curriculum plans that ensure core subject knowledge, skills, and stories truly stick with pupils for life.

The upcoming curriculum revisions for England will bring tweaks rather than radical changes, placing a much more visible profile on sustainability and the complex, value-laden topic of climate change.

As you approach your next round of curriculum-making, discover how geography acts as the perfect curriculum glue to mesh disparate ideas into meaningful, enquiry-led learning.
