Geography at Reddam House – James Taylor I have taught at Reddam for 6 years and I absolutely love the challenge of getting the best out of our students in lessons, on the sports fields and other extra-curricular activities. Geography is always evolving and the subject is relevant to all students for the reasons outlined below: •	The study of Geography stimulates an interest in and a sense of wonder about places. •	It helps young people make sense of a complex and dynamically changing world. •	It explains where places are, how places and landscapes are formed, how people and their environment interact, and how a diverse range of economies, societies and environments are interconnected. •	Geographical enquiry encourages questioning, investigation and critical thinking about issues affecting the world and people's lives, now and in the future. •	Geography inspires pupils to become global citizens by exploring their own place in the world, their values and their responsibilities to other people, to the environment and to the sustainability of the planet.
