As your child progresses to Upper Secondary, the academic curriculum starts to become more rigorous, and your child becomes more exposed to the world around them. As one of the Humanities subjects first taught in Secondary school, and is also offered in Junior College, Geography is a subject that relates directly to the physical and social environment around the student. As we are all well aware, the world is faced with several challenges to the living environment, such as globalisation, changing demographics and technological advancements. In Geography, this would be what our children learn. It is important for them to learn about such topics just as they are maturing and guide them towards critical thinking and analysis regarding these significant issues.
