'Discover Geography' - shortlisted for a Teach Secondary award


The Discover Geography series has its own page on the Collins website, with links now to the Hub digital materials that I worked on to support the series and the webinar that was recorded when we launched it.

I was pleased to hear that the series has been shortlisted for the Teach Secondary Awards 2026.

Here are the other shortlisted resources in the 'Curriculum improvement' category.

The winner is announced in November.

A new resource I wrote on Mapping London

There is a new area of the updated RGS-IBG website which you may not have seen.
It is a project called Rediscovering London's Geography.

One outcome of the project has been the creation of teaching resources, with more to come.

The first two are now up on the website, and both would be useful to those teaching the new KS3 for the first time.

The first is a resource exploring Ice Ages and Geological Timescales, which has been written by Dr. David Anderson: Head of Geography at Eton College.

The second one is called Mapping London, and took me the first two weeks of my summer holidays to write and put together. There are 6 sessions which can be followed with KS3 students.



Thanks to the various colleagues who are mentioned along the way in the unit for their ideas which were adapted and used in various elements of the unit.
The ideas could be adapted for other cities too...
