Adding to our teacher training portfolio we are running two sessions, in collaboration with the Royal Geographical Society (IBG). Both are free to register.
Geographical enquiry and approaches to data collection KS3-KS5
4 March 2025, 5.00pm-6.30pm

This free online event is an introduction to geographical enquiry for early career teachers.
The webinar aims to build confidence and create a toolkit of resources to help newer geography teachers to deliver fieldwork. During this 90min twilight session we will share information and resources to help with:
- Promoting and identifying fieldwork opportunities throughout the curriculum.
- Primary vs secondary data.
- Quantitative vs qualitative data.
We know that when planning fieldwork there is a lot to think about, so in this session we will share our expertise to support your fieldwork journey and answer your queries. There will be structured support and ideas to try back at school.

People and place fieldwork skills and opportunities in your local area
10 June 2025, 5.00pm-6.30pm

Are you a GCSE or A Level geography teacher trying to cover human fieldwork skills without visiting a field centre? Field Studies Council can help – over 90mins in this session we will introduce various methods of data collection and techniques that can be done in the local area to your school.
We will help you to build a toolkit and gain confidence in using methods to inspire and engage your students in human geography. Looking at both GCSE enquiry questions and how to get the best out of a local study, and a wider more skills-based approach at A Level, we will introduce new innovative ideas to avoid just another traffic count!
We will showcase best practice and take away ideas to try – this session will help you to plan and deliver high quality local fieldwork.
