At Waterside Primary School we aim to inspire a curiosity and fascination about the world and its people that will remain with them for the rest of their lives. Our curriculum equips pupils with knowledge about diverse places, people, resources and natural and human environments, together with a deep understanding of the Earth’s key physical and human processes. Our inspiring geography curriculum is carefully planned to allow children to build upon on their prior knowledge and to give them a secure foundation for future learning.
