Geography is concerned with the study of people and their environment. A study of geography will help students develop an understanding of their physical and human surroundings. It examines the changing interrelationships between the physical and human worlds. Through their study of geography, students will develop geographical skills that will help them make informed judgements about issues at local, national, and international levels.

There will be a separate written examination for Higher level and for Ordinary level students. The terminal written examination will have an assessment weighting of 80%.
