Geography
We are geographers

Teaching and learning
CUSP Geography resources contain a wealth of evidence-led materials to support excellent teaching and long-term learning.
Geography in EYFS
In the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), geography skills are taught through knowledge and understanding of the world. They observe, find out about, and identify features in the place they live and the natural world. They find out about their environment, and talk about those features they like and dislike through exploration and investigation.
