Current CRACKING Curriculum Theme

Our current theme is 'Ainsdale on Sea' 

In this unit, Children investigate how physical geography has shaped Ainsdale's coastline and how people have changed the landscape over time.

Using historical maps, fieldwork and geographical enquiry, pupils explore why Ainsdale developed where it did, how tourism and transport transformed the area and how the coastline can be managed sustainably for future generations.

Throughout the unit pupils answer:

How has Ainsdale changed over time and how can we protect its future?
