Overseas Geography School Field Trips

Overseas School Trips Geography Fieldwork

On an overseas geography school field trip you could be monitoring wildlife at a reserve in Africa, studying tourism, population and urban development in a European city like Naples, or observing physical processes like geysers and volcanoes in Iceland. Topics include Living with the physical environment, natural hazards, challenges in the human environment, the changing economic world, and the challenges of resource management.
Geography as a subject has so much variety and so many opportunities for study.

The educational adventures on this page allow students to see with their own eyes the geological processes, ecosystems, or human behaviour they have studied in the classroom. The possibilities for learning are endless.

Looking for ideas of where to take your geographers to do some fieldwork? Deciding where to go and what aspects of geography to study will be influenced by your classroom subject topics. Schools and colleges that include a fieldwork element in their geography coursework are far more likely to see a strong improvement in their students' grades as they get the chance to apply practical first hand analysis to theoretical classroom teaching. Students will also develop a deeper knowledge and understanding of geographical processes, and acquire lots of new skills; both individual and teamwork.

The geography trips we list here are curriculum focused and operated by specialist companies who all have years of experience delivering enjoyable and rewarding geography field trips for thousands of UK school pupils.
