Geography
Our children at Mile Oak are encouraged to THINK BIG in Geography and experience a high-quality geography education. This inspires a curiosity and fascination about the word, it’s diverse places, people, resources, natural and human environments and the Earth’s key physical and human processes. They also have the opportunity to develop their geographical skills further through the use of our outstanding school grounds and local area.
The local area also provides many opportunities for the children to explore the physical and human features and landscapes of Mile Oak and the surrounding environment, The Downs, local parks and amenities. This provides great opportunities for the children to ask and answer questions about the areas studied and explore these first hand.
