This free webinar will support conversations about maps, mapping and atlas use in the EY and Primary classroom. The chat will be open and will feature lots of inspiring ideas to support what is being said to support your teaching.

This webinar will conclude with a Q+A and some information about the extensive support the Geographical Association offers: high-quality classroom resources, inspirational teaching ideas, Subject Leader guidance, excellent continuing professional development events, and stimulating networking opportunities, reflecting OFSTED’s recent recommendation that teachers draw on "subject-specific support and professional networks ‘ (Ofsted, 2021).
