Place, Settlement & Urbanisation

Weeks 9–14 · six interactive 40-minute lessons · Geography GCSE/UAS bridge

GIS → URBANISATION → FIELDWORK → DATA → CONTRASTING PLACES → FIELDWORK VERDICT ★

This sequence continues directly from Week 8’s OS map transfer lesson and matches LAUNCH Weekly – Autumn · Aut2 W2–W7.

Source integrity: every supplied map, dataset and place profile is labelled as a constructed classroom resource. It is not official data, not to scale and not for navigation or real-world planning. Live fieldwork requires the centre’s own approval, supervision and risk assessment.
