Geography in Schools: Misplaced or Misheard ?

Centenary Lecture Series
Peter Jackson introduced the lecture, and David Lambert explored the nature of geography as a subject discipline, and the various pressures and tensions that exist between subjects and a curriculum based on competencies, and skills.
He explored the links between other subjects, and the issues related to this, and the teaching of values, and 'good causes'.
It featured a few GA projects including the YOUNG PEOPLES GEOGRAPHIES project (the famous Anton - who did get those A's by the way) and the MAKING GEOGRAPHY HAPPEN project (of which more to come later...)
There were a number of questions following the lecture, and a drinks reception.
