GA Conference and Exhibition 2025

This session will provide a framework on what progress using GIS can look like, and approaches that can be used to develop GIS use across the curriculum by students and educators. It will refer to examples of how GIS has been developed in different settings, and how to work connectively with external organisations to achieve this.

In 2022, the DfE mandated that all schools in England have a Climate Action Plan focusing on decarbonisation, adaptation, climate education and biodiversity. Join regional hub managers from the DfE-funded Climate Ambassadors scheme for a collaborative workshop to find out how the scheme can help you, as well as generating ideas that will empower you to support your school in taking meaningful climate action.

As teacher recruitment gets harder, we know that it's more likely we'll be supporting non-specialist teachers in understanding and teaching our material. In this session, Alistair and David share what they've learned about the stories of geography from writing, and how it helps to build a sense of the disciplinary concepts and approach for non-specialist teachers.
