This is a student guide/checklist designed to help geography students complete their CIE coursework worth 27.5% of their IGCSE course. As a teacher you will need to change the Title, aims and a couple of the specific checklists but otherwise it is up to date and contains enough guidance to help students receive top grades. This resource is tried and tested - with all my IGCSE students gaining 50+ out of 60 on their coursework and a few even receiving full marks. For more resources visit
