Enable students to gain a better understanding of these skills through hands-on study and revision:

Very useful and I really like that answers or suggested answers are included for the questions...

...As a teacher this is really helpful because it means that I don’t have to prepare answers, which is very time consuming!

T. Hancy, Geography Editor

Outstanding – detailed and thorough in planning. I purchased [Word] editable version which is perfect for us in enabling us to stitch into our SoW. It is an entire unit of work. Even a non-specialist can deliver a sophisticated excellent lesson

S. Oliver, HoD & Customer

Good use of model answers and exam style questions to help students... Exam hints sign post when students could expect to use the skill

S. Robinson, HoG & Peer Reviewer

Exceptionally detailed with lots of material that can be used by the students...excellent sample questions for students witch fit the specification...especially as it states which techniques will be examined and which could be used when working with field work

S Knights, Teacher & Peer Reviewer

The resource is of a high quality and focuses upon the skills aspect of geography; which is a key change for the new geography curriculum. It is well balanced in terms of human and physical geography and provides scaffolding for the less able students as well as appropriate challenge for the more able

G. Dhaliwal, Teacher & Peer Reviewer

The strength of the resource lies in the questions and activities that the students have to complete. The questions for some of these techniques are very useful and I really like that answers or suggested answers are included for the questions. As a teacher this is really helpful because it means that we don’t have to prepare answers, which is very time consuming

C. Turner, Teacher & Peer Reviewer

The graphical skills section document will aid pupils to address geographical enquiry strands (2-5) in the AQA specifications. Its graphical content provides an opportunity for pupils to appreciate the varied range of methods available for presenting different forms of fieldwork data. The map analysis explanations and activities however are excellent and thoroughly relevant to KS4 skills required for success. The answers sections are also excellent for modelling best practice
