there is something for any primary school teacher, structured around the requirements set out by England’s National Curriculum… This is
a great book for those wishing to overhaul and update their Geography curriculum within a primary school and could be implemented by a subject specialist, leader or teacher who loves the potential opportunities such a rich subject as Geography has got on offer. -- UKEdChat
