Awards for Excellence in Geographical Learning
Secondary education geography awards
What are these awards for?
These awards aim to recognise and reward excellence in geographical examinations. It is always
appreciated by students, parents and schools when the highest examination achievements are
rewarded, and to have that achievement recognised by the national learned society for the subject
elevates it further still. We have therefore embarked on an award scheme which promotes the
interest and enjoyment of geography by recognising and rewarding high achievers in A Level and
GCSE examinations.
The awards are announced in November/December of each year once we have been notified of the
outstanding candidates by the Awarding Bodies.
