Geography SSLP Event for Teachers held at Alleyn's (St Michael's Catholic College, Bermondsey, London)

This year’s first Geography SSLP event for teachers was held at Alleyn’s on 3rd November 2016 with attendance from St Michael’s Catholic College and St Saviour’s & St Olave’s schools. The teachers took part in ArcGIS CPD presented by one of the Alleyn’s Geography teachers, and Head of Lower School, Stuart Turner.

Aims

The teachers worked through a couple of data types, mapping travel distance from school and crime statistics. There was a lot of discussion over how to incorporate this into lessons and about general approaches to teaching.

Impact

A blog with the materials from the afternoon and some additional blog posts covering a range of geographical topics can be found here.
