Description

This unit teaches pupils about the human and physical geography of China, how this leads to diverse lives within the country, and how it affects its power and status around the world. Pupils will learn about China's economy and how this affects its relationship with the rest of the world.

China is the 2nd most populous country in the world and has the 2nd largest economy. China's influence on world affairs and its importance to global trade and the economy make it a crucial country for pupils to study. Pupils will use their knowledge from prior units on population and weather and climate to help make sense of China's human and physical geography. Learning from this unit will be used in future units on globalisation and development and will help pupils understand the interconnections that exist between and within countries.
