With the Society currently closed due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, we are hosting our summer programme of teacher CPD events online.
Over the coming months, we will run a range of events for teachers designed to enhance skills and provide up-to-date knowledge on variety of topics. We have events suitable for both primary and secondary level geography teachers, from sharing ideas in our Teachmeets and updating knowledge on the GCSE curriculum, to exploring technical fieldwork techniques and using spreadsheets to manage the different types of data - so there’s bound to be something to pique your interest.

With the Society currently closed due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, our summer programme of Monday night lectures is being streamed online for Fellows and members.
The global coronavirus pandemic has led to significant disruption to the fieldwork plans of many researchers. The Society, through its grants programme, is continuing to select and commit funding for researchers who plan to go into the field when it is safe and responsible to do so.
To mark Earth Day, we’re making our recent Monday night lecture by Dr Tamsin Edwards ‘What fate for Antarctica’ free to view for one week until Wednesday 29 April.
We caught up with three of the editors for our journal Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers.
