With the teacher recruitment offering worrying times for schools and ITE providers alike , it’s already quite common – and likely to become more important – that HoDs and Departments have a considered approach to supporting non-specialists with teaching in Geography. Geography has a lot of Tier 2/Tier 3 words.

As a teacher in the early phase of your career, a lot of your professional development is naturally focused on your Geography and subject knowledge. In my experience, as you develop further through your career, the Geography-specific training and focus reduces in time. But what if you want to be focused on your Geography?

Here, I’d like to talk about something that I’ve seen in English pedagogy, and consider if – and how – we might want to conceptualise something similar for Geography. The initial stages of Geography are descriptive, about the world that the student knows – and almost exclusively that. Appleyard (1990) Theory of Reader Development.
