This 2 HOUR KS3 lesson investigates the factors influencing mass rural to urban migration in China. Pupils are required to create a comic strip, summarising key messages from a comprehension exercise. The task teaches pupils about the hardship rural migrants experience and addresses the ‘perceived’ benefits of urban life. The lesson includes a case study video link to aid pupil understanding, as well as an additional worksheet task, in which pupils categorise the impacts of rural to urban migration.
This 12 week scheme of work is carefully sequenced to allow learners to improve their understanding of why various weather types and climatic patterns exist. Pupils develop various geographical skills and learn to sequence key physical processes, such as the hydrological cycle, as well as a relief, convectional and frontal rainfall. Students will investigate why the UK experiences such variations in its weather and look at the causes and impacts of flooding. This well organised scheme contains all of the teaching and learning materials required to teach this important area of the curriculum.

This 12 week scheme investigates China. China has a rich and unique heritage, spanning back thousands of years. Its huge size produces diverse landscapes and unique physical Geography, found nowhere else in the world. These contrasting landscapes are mirrored by huge inequalities across its human landscapes. Stark population differences and large discrepancies in standards of living across the country provide interest, given how China portrays itself at the world stage. The decisive but often controversial decisions made by the Chinese government have helped China’s economy grow to become one of the largest in the world. This unit investigates this growing superpower, evaluating the impacts of physical Geography and government policy on development across the nation.
