The team at @Glos_Geog, our local GA branch, have been working incredibly hard to coordinate a number of events for primary and secondary pupils and their teachers, plus ECTs and trainees, for this academic year. See below.

A great opportunity next week.
You do not have to be a GlosGeog member or Gloucestershire-based school to participate either.

Don't miss this opportunity!
You do not have to be a @Glos_Geog member to engage with the event.
Being live streamed, so may well appeal to those beyond Glos too.

What a week to be teaching migration to GCSE pupils.

This is my main resource: a GIS map that tells the story of migration.

Economic push factors. Asylum seekers. Physical & human barriers to migration.

Help bring the story home with this resource.
