Fieldwork at Great Ballard: Geography That Gets Mud on Its Boots
May 1, 2026
Some of the best geography lessons don’t happen at a desk. They happen in wellies, on windy beaches, or halfway up a hill with a notebook in hand and a slightly squashed packed lunch. That’s where theory stops being theory and starts making sense.
Our GCSE students from 2025 and 2026, alongside talented artists from across the senior school, have presented a stunning showcase of their work in St Margaret's Church in Eartham.
Our Senior Deputy, Alice Hardwick, shares her experiences of moving from the state to independent sector and why she is excited about the Great Ballard curriculum.
