Welcome!

Ok, this has been running for a little while now. I have added all sorts over the last couple of years. Please feel free to recommend links/information to me that I can add - I'd like to get students involved in the up-keep of it to make it more student focused.

I will keep adding things as I see them!

I hope you enjoy, let's see how this goes!

On tv...

At the moment there are loads of programmes on that will help you! On iPlayer there is a series called Why Poverty, it's a 7 part programme that helps revise and study for unit 1. There is also a programme with Simon Reeves in it again about Cuba that should be interesting!

I'm sure there are others, if you know of any feel free to comment on this post and share your knowledge!!!!!

If you have an iPad, I stumbled across a new Edexcel app the other day which allows you to download past papers and mark schemes, we are the GCSE 2009 and we are the B specification in Geography if you want to look at it.

Other than that, I know I've said it time and time again but I will try to update this a bit more regularly! Fingers crossed

Olympics 2012

It's me again! It has been a long time since I updated properly. I have recently downloaded a blooging app on my iPad at school, so I am going to try and blog a bit more often. I'm not sure how many people read my blog but it's a good place to keep links of useful pages etc.

So, my attention has been drawn to this video on the BBC all out the Barcelona Olympics in 1992. You could say it is about the good, the bad and white elephant!

It is an interesting watch, and we can only hope that London 2012 won't suffer the same fate of producing a £9 billion white elephant! I'm sure we won't, but interesting none-the-less.
