    New Primary Geography Subject Leaders Support Package (Blended)

    This package supports new geography subject leaders through a virtual webinar followed by a bespoke school support visit. It is aimed at geography leaders who have been in the role for 18 months or less.

    This will support the bespoke half day follow-up school visit where subject leaders can work with the geography adviser to evaluate their long-term overviews and develop high-quality geography lesson plans. The visit can be adapted to meet the specific needs and priorities of each individual school.
