At GCSE and A Level, pupils deepen their understanding through rigorous study combined with real-world application. Geography is a popular Sixth Form subject, valued for the way it develops analytical thinking, independence and global awareness, and many pupils go on to study it at university.
Fieldwork is central to learning. Pupils explore diverse environments across the North East, including Northumberland, South Shields, Warkworth and the Lake District, with optional overseas field trips — such as Iceland — bringing geographical theory to life.
We are saddened to hear the news of the closure of Durham High School.
We understand that this will be a worrying and uncertain time for pupils, their families and staff. If your family has been affected, and you would like to discuss options for your child’s education, our Admissions Team is here to provide advice and support, and to answer any questions you may have.
