Save 24%
An exceptional-quality guide of clear, easy to understand notes on GCSE Geography, created by a level 8&9 GCSE Student in accordance with the OCR, Edexcel and AQA syllabi as they’re very similar. I studied this for Edexcel, and a colleague studied it for AQA.
The resource includes important information that is laid out in an intelligible and straightforward manner, compiled from all of my class and textbook notes.
I often found the GCSE textbooks to be overwhelming and visually intense, so the resource was created to combat this.
The resources have also proven extremely useful in A Level Geography, where a quick refresher is needed or simply a simple explanation of a concept, as much of the content overlaps.
Resources included:
Coasts
Rainforests
Rivers
Hot Deserts
Climate change
Ecosystems
Food
See individual resources for a more detailed breakdown.
