Description

This unit teaches pupils about the human and physical geography of India, how this leads to diverse lives within the country, and how it affects its power and status around the world. Pupils will learn about different places in India and how migration patterns influence their society.

India is the most populous country in the world and has the 5th largest economy. India's growing influence in the region and beyond makes 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 India'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.
