Self-led CPD: Integrating fieldwork and enquiry skills into curriculum plans
Fieldwork is an integral part of the geographical discipline and should not viewed in isolation. Embedding fieldwork provision into your curriculum can be a challenge, especially given the practical constraints that teachers face.
This self-led teacher CPD will guide your department through an audit of your current methods of fieldwork provision, highlighting the opportunities to fully embed fieldwork skills and activity firmly within your geography curriculum in a way that suits and benefits you and your students.
What is self-led CPD?
Our self-led CPD modules, hosted by experts in their field, are designed to be used both individually or within departmental CPD sessions. They contain information, guidance and activities, and can be worked through at your own pace.
There are prompts within the modules where reflection, discussion or activities are encouraged. Each module is accompanied by additional documents, resources and information to enhance your learning.
