- 4:52For
- 4:52me,
- 4:52I
- 4:53teach
- 4:53rivers
- 4:54and
- 4:55hazardous
- 4:55environments
- 4:56and
- 4:56urban
- 4:56environments
- 4:57and
- 4:58economic
- 4:58activity
- 4:59and
- 4:59energy
- 4:59and
- 5:00fragile
- 5:00environments.
- 5:01But
- 5:01I
- 5:01could
- 5:01do
- 5:01a
- 5:01different
- 5:02suite
- 5:02completely,
- 5:03which
- 5:04is
- 5:04nice,
- 5:04because
- 5:04it
- 5:04means
- 5:05that
- 5:05I
- 5:05can
- 5:05sort
- 5:05of
- 5:05go
- 5:06with
- 5:06what
- 5:06I
- 5:06think
- 5:07my
- 5:07strengths
- 5:07are
- 5:07or
- 5:08what
- 5:08I'm
- 5:08more
- 5:08interested
- 5:09in.
- 5:09Kind
- 5:09of
- 5:10like
- 5:10you.
- 5:10I
- 5:10was
- 5:11put
- 5:11off
- 5:11by
- 5:11geography
- 5:12at
- 5:12school
- 5:13by
- 5:13having
- 5:13to
- 5:13do
- 5:13a
- 5:13very
- 5:14long,
- 5:14boring
- 5:14coasts
- 5:15unit
- 5:16about
- 5:17longshore
- 5:17drift.
- 5:18And
- 5:19although
- 5:19it's
- 5:19really
- 5:19interesting
- 5:20now,
- 5:20I'm
- 5:21still
- 5:21slightly
- 5:21scarred
- 5:22by
- 5:22that.
- 5:23So
- 5:23I
- 5:23do
- 5:24rivers
- 5:24instead
- 5:24of
- 5:24coast.
- 5:25I
- 5:25had
- 5:26this.
- 5:26I
- 5:26had
- 5:26a
- 5:27similar
- 5:27experience
- 5:27with
- 5:27history
- 5:27at
- 5:28school,
- 5:28where
- 5:28I
- 5:28was
- 5:28forced
- 5:29to
- 5:29do
- 5:29the
- 5:29Industrial
- 5:30Revolution.
- 5:30And
- 5:31I
- 5:31remember
- 5:31learning
- 5:31about
- 5:31spinning
- 5:32jennies
- 5:32for
- 5:33about
- 5:33three
- 5:33years
- 5:33and
- 5:34it
- 5:34was
- 5:34like.
- 5:35And
- 5:35now
- 5:35for
- 5:36history,
- 5:36you
- 5:36can.
- 5:37Yeah,
- 5:37you
- 5:37can
- 5:37choose
- 5:38World
- 5:38War
- 5:38II
- 5:39and
- 5:39really
- 5:39fun
- 5:39stuff.
- 5:40And
- 5:40it's
- 5:40like,
- 5:41I
- 5:41got
- 5:41spinning
- 5:41jennies
- 5:42and
- 5:42you
- 5:42get
- 5:43Stalin.
- 5:43That
- 5:44seems
- 5:44unfair.
- 5:44Anyway,
- 5:45so
- 5:45for
- 5:46the
- 5:46geography,
- 5:47actually,
- 5:47that
- 5:48seems
- 5:48a
- 5:48really
- 5:48good
- 5:48thing.
- 5:48Now
- 5:48I
- 5:49think
- 5:49about
- 5:49it
- 5:49out
- 5:49loud.
- 5:49But
- 5:50for
- 5:50the
- 5:50geography,
- 5:52you
- 5:52say
- 5:52that
- 5:53there's
- 5:53a
- 5:53lot
- 5:53of
- 5:53units.
- 5:53So
- 5:54how
- 5:54many
- 5:54units
- 5:54are
- 5:54there
- 5:55and
- 5:55how
- 5:55many
- 5:55do
- 5:56you
- 5:56choose
- 5:56for
- 5:57Edexcel?
- 5:58So
- 5:58for
- 5:58Edexcel,
- 5:59there's,
- 6:00I
- 6:00think,
- 6:0010
- 6:01possible
- 6:01units
- 6:02and
- 6:03you
- 6:03teach
- 6:03five
- 6:04of
- 6:04them.
- 6:05Any
- 6:06compulsory?
- 6:07I
- 6:07believe
- 6:07the
- 6:07only
- 6:07compulsory
- 6:08one
- 6:08is
- 6:08the
- 6:09economic
- 6:09activity
- 6:10and
- 6:10energy.
- 6:11I
- 6:11think
- 6:11that
- 6:11one's
- 6:12compulsory.
- 6:13But
- 6:13then
- 6:14you
- 6:14can.
- 6:14Then
- 6:15on
- 6:16top
- 6:16of
- 6:16those
- 6:1610
- 6:16units,
- 6:17you've
- 6:17then
- 6:18got
- 6:18field
- 6:19work
- 6:19to
- 6:19do,
- 6:20and
- 6:20that
- 6:20field
- 6:21work
- 6:21is
- 6:21connected
- 6:22to
- 6:22whichever
- 6:22other
- 6:23units
- 6:23you
- 6:23do.
- 6:24So
- 6:24I
- 6:25do
- 6:25rivers
- 6:25and
- 6:25then
- 6:26a
- 6:26rivers
- 6:26field
- 6:26work
- 6:27section,
- 6:27and
- 6:27I
- 6:28do
- 6:28urban
- 6:28environments
- 6:29and
- 6:29an
- 6:29urban
- 6:29fieldwork
- 6:30section.
- 6:31But
- 6:31you
- 6:31could,
- 6:31if
- 6:32you
- 6:32lived
- 6:32near
- 6:32a
- 6:32volcano,
- 6:33you
- 6:33could
- 6:33do
- 6:34hazardous
- 6:34environments.
- 6:35And
- 6:36not
- 6:36great
- 6:36for
- 6:36the
- 6:36uk,
- 6:36because
- 6:37we
- 6:37don't
- 6:37really
- 6:37have
- 6:37any
- 6:38hazardous
- 6:38environments.
- 6:39No
- 6:39earthquakes,
- 6:40no
- 6:40volcanoes,
- 6:41no
- 6:41chance
- 6:41of
- 6:41a
- 6:41tropical
- 6:42storm.
- 6:42But
- 6:42that's
- 6:43the
- 6:43truly
- 6:43international
- 6:43part
- 6:44of
- 6:44it.
- 6:44You
- 6:44know,
- 6:44if
- 6:45we
- 6:45were
- 6:45in
- 6:45Italy
- 6:45or
- 6:45somewhere,
- 6:46it'd
- 6:46be
- 6:46fantastic
- 6:46to
- 6:47do
- 6:47that.
- 6:47So
- 6:48when
- 6:48it
- 6:48comes
- 6:48to
- 6:48fieldwork,
- 6:49how
- 6:49does
- 6:50that
- 6:50get
- 6:50examined?
- 6:50Is
- 6:51it
- 6:51like
- 6:51science
- 6:52igcse,
- 6:52where
- 6:53you
- 6:53have
- 6:53to
- 6:53know,
- 6:54you
- 6:54have
- 6:54to
- 6:54study
- 6:55it
- 6:55in
- 6:55order
- 6:55to
- 6:55answer
- 6:55questions
- 6:56in
- 6:56the
- 6:56exam
- 6:56about
- 6:57it?
- 6:58That's
- 6:58right,
- 6:58yes.
- 6:59And
- 6:59what
- 7:00I
- 7:00do
- 7:00is,
- 7:00each
- 7:00year
- 7:01we
- 7:01actually
- 7:01go
- 7:01and
- 7:01do
- 7:02fieldwork.
- 7:02So
- 7:02most
- 7:02of
- 7:03my
- 7:03students
- 7:03will
- 7:03come
- 7:03and
- 7:03do
- 7:04field
- 7:04work
- 7:04with
- 7:04me.
- 7:05We
- 7:05do
- 7:05that
- 7:05in
- 7:06and
- 7:06around
- 7:06Derby.
- 7:06But
- 7:07if
- 7:07there's
- 7:07a
- 7:07student
- 7:07who
- 7:08cannot
- 7:08do
- 7:08that
- 7:09or
- 7:09hasn't,
- 7:10for
- 7:10whatever
- 7:10reason,
- 7:11they
- 7:11can
- 7:11just
- 7:12sort
- 7:12of
- 7:12say,
- 7:12this
- 7:12is
- 7:13what
- 7:13I
- 7:13did
- 7:14on
- 7:14my
- 7:14imaginary
- 7:15field
- 7:15trip.
- 7:16So
- 7:16we
- 7:17do
- 7:17all
- 7:17the
- 7:17theory.
- 7:18And
- 7:18we
- 7:18sort
- 7:18of
- 7:18learn
- 7:19the
- 7:19best
- 7:19way
- 7:19to
- 7:19answer
- 7:19the
- 7:20exam
- 7:20questions
- 7:21as
- 7:21if
- 7:21they
- 7:21had
- 7:21done
- 7:22it.
- 7:22But
- 7:22it
- 7:23is
- 7:23nice
- 7:23because
- 7:25I
- 7:25had
- 7:25a
- 7:25kid
- 7:25in
- 7:26Ghana
- 7:26who
- 7:27would
- 7:28do
- 7:28his
- 7:28fieldwork
- 7:29for
- 7:29rivers
- 7:30in
- 7:30a
- 7:30river
- 7:31with
- 7:31hippos
- 7:31in
- 7:31it.
- 7:32And
- 7:32then
- 7:32they
- 7:32can
- 7:32talk
- 7:33back
- 7:33to
- 7:34students
- 7:34in
- 7:34the
- 7:34UK
- 7:35who
- 7:35don't
- 7:35have
- 7:35a
- 7:35hippo.
- 7:37So
- 7:37it
- 7:37keeps
- 7:38things
- 7:38exciting,
- 7:38I
- 7:39suppose,
- 7:39but
- 7:39it's
- 7:40quite
- 7:40flexible
- 7:40like
- 7:41that.
- 7:41Okay,
- 7:42so
- 7:42the
- 7:43field
- 7:43work
- 7:43you
- 7:44offer,
- 7:44like

- 7:46Work,
- 7:46where
- 7:46people
- 7:47are
- 7:47not

- 7:50Because
- 7:50I

- 7:54Derby,
- 7:54we
- 7:55spend
- 7:55the

- 8:00their
- 8:00questionnaires,
- 8:01which

- 8:12maybe
- 8:13not
- 8:13so
- 8:13much
- 8:13if
- 8:13you're
- 8:14older.
- 8:14And
- 8:14then
- 8:15once
- 8:15we've
- 8:15done
- 8:15all
- 8:15the
- 8:16sort
- 8:16of

- 8:18park
- 8:19where
- 8:19there's
- 8:19a
- 8:19nice
- 8:19river.
- 8:20We

- 8:20the
- 8:20river
- 8:21and
- 8:21measure
- 8:22sediment

- 8:23water
- 8:23speed
- 8:24and
- 8:24all
- 8:24that
- 8:24kind
- 8:24of
- 8:25stuff.
- 8:25So
- 8:25we
- 8:25can
- 8:25do
- 8:25it
- 8:26all
- 8:26in
- 8:26that
- 8:26one
- 8:26day,
- 8:27which
- 8:27is
- 8:27quite
- 8:27nice.
- 8:28How
- 8:28important
- 8:29do
- 8:29you
- 8:29think
- 8:29it
- 8:29is
- 8:30for
- 8:30geography
- 8:31to
- 8:31have
- 8:31that
- 8:31practical
- 8:32element?
- 8:32I
- 8:32mean,
- 8:33I'm
- 8:33thinking
- 8:33of
- 8:34science
- 8:34where
- 8:34science
- 8:35is
- 8:35one
- 8:35of
- 8:35those.
- 8:35Where
- 8:36it's
- 8:36really
- 8:36nice,
- 8:36isn't
- 8:37it,
- 8:37to
- 8:37do
- 8:37the
- 8:37experiments?
- 8:38Is
- 8:38geography
- 8:39a
- 8:39bit
- 8:39the
- 8:39same
- 8:39way?
- 8:39It's
- 8:39like
- 8:40it
- 8:40makes
- 8:40a
- 8:40difference
- 8:41to
- 8:41your
- 8:41learning
- 8:41if
- 8:42you're
- 8:42able
- 8:42to
- 8:42get
- 8:42out
- 8:42there
- 8:42and
- 8:43do
- 8:43this
- 8:43stuff.
- 8:44It
- 8:44definitely
- 8:44does,
- 8:44I
- 8:45think,
- 8:45possibly
- 8:45slightly
- 8:46differently
- 8:46from
- 8:46science,
- 8:47though.
- 8:47The
- 8:48wonderful
- 8:48thing
- 8:48about
- 8:48science
- 8:49is
- 8:49you
- 8:49do
- 8:49the
- 8:49experiment
- 8:50and
- 8:51it
- 8:51works
- 8:51the
- 8:52way
- 8:52it
- 8:52should,
- 8:53assuming
- 8:53you
- 8:53do
- 8:53the
- 8:53experiment
- 8:54correctly.
- 8:55Whereas
- 8:56my
- 8:56science
- 8:56experience,
- 8:57I
- 8:57have
- 8:57to
- 8:57say,
- 8:58where
- 8:58almost
- 8:58all
- 8:58my
- 8:58experiments
- 8:59went
- 8:59wrong.
- 8:59But,
- 8:59yeah,
- 9:00clearly
- 9:00you
- 9:01are
- 9:01better
- 9:01at
- 9:01science
- 9:01than
- 9:01me.
- 9:04But
- 9:04with
- 9:04geography,
- 9:04it's
- 9:05the
- 9:05opposite.
- 9:05You,
- 9:06you
- 9:06know,
- 9:06you
- 9:06learn
- 9:06all
- 9:07this
- 9:07stuff
- 9:07in
- 9:07the
- 9:07textbook
- 9:07about
- 9:08how
- 9:08a
- 9:08river
- 9:08behaves
- 9:09and
- 9:10what
- 9:10a
- 9:10population
- 9:10in
- 9:11an
- 9:11urban
- 9:11center
- 9:11will
- 9:12be
- 9:12like.
- 9:12And
- 9:13then
- 9:13you
- 9:13actually
- 9:13talk
- 9:13to
- 9:14them
- 9:14and
- 9:14you
- 9:14actually
- 9:14measure
- 9:15the
- 9:15river
- 9:15and
- 9:15it
- 9:15doesn't
- 9:15fit.
- 9:17So
- 9:17that's.
- 9:18It's
- 9:18kind
- 9:18of
- 9:19a
- 9:19good
- 9:19lesson
- 9:19that,
- 9:20you
- 9:20know,

- 13:10nice
- 13:10and
- 13:10flexible.
- 13:11But

- 15:04It's

- 15:11bit
- 15:11frightened

- 15:13because

- 15:14formulaic,
- 15:15it
- 15:16builds
- 15:16their

- 15:17So

- 15:19and
- 15:20then

- 15:30So
- 15:30it's
- 15:30there,
- 15:31but
- 15:31it's
- 15:32manageable.
- 15:33And

- 15:46bit,
- 15:47the
- 15:47point,
- 15:47evidence,
- 15:48explain
- 15:49is
- 15:49that
- 15:49when
- 15:50you

- 15:56know
- 15:56that
- 15:57much,
- 15:57but
- 15:57is
- 15:57that
- 15:57where
- 15:58you
- 15:58would
- 15:58need
- 15:58to
- 15:58know,
- 15:59for
- 15:59example,
- 16:00that
- 16:00in
- 16:00Mexico
- 16:01there's

- 16:04and
- 16:04Y?
- 16:05No.
- 16:06So

- 16:11much
- 16:11more
- 16:12sort
- 16:12of

- 16:13I
- 16:13mean,
- 16:14it's

- 16:23they
- 16:23give
- 16:23you.
- 16:24Where
- 16:25the
- 16:25case
- 16:25studies
- 16:25come
- 16:26in
- 16:26would
- 16:26be
- 16:26shorter
- 16:27questions.
- 16:27They

- 16:28say,
- 16:29give
- 16:30me
- 16:30the
- 16:30country
- 16:30you
- 16:30want

- 16:34Give
- 16:34two

- 16:36usage
- 16:37in
- 16:37your
- 16:37chosen
- 16:38country,
- 16:38or
- 16:39two
- 16:40reasons
- 16:40waste
- 16:41disposal
- 16:41is

- 16:46really
- 16:46come
- 16:46into
- 16:47the
- 16:47essays.
- 16:48So
- 16:48it's

- 16:48little
- 16:48bit
- 16:48more
- 16:48like
- 16:49environmental

- 16:56analyzing
- 16:57the
- 16:57information.
- 16:58Yes,
- 16:58yes.
- 16:59So
- 16:59all
- 16:59of
- 16:59the
- 16:59Eight
- 16:59mark
- 16:59questions.
- 17:00They
- 17:00start
- 17:00with
- 17:01the
- 17:01word
- 17:01analyze.
- 17:02So
- 17:03yeah,
- 17:03it's
- 17:04perfect.
- 17:04It's
- 17:04just
- 17:04pure
- 17:05analysis
- 17:05which
- 17:05is
- 17:06good.
- 17:06Environmental
- 17:07management
- 17:07is
- 17:08such
- 17:08a
- 17:08beautiful
- 17:08classic
- 17:09starter
- 17:10GCSE
- 17:10for
- 17:10home
- 17:11educators,
- 17:11but
- 17:11it's
- 17:11unusual
- 17:12in
- 17:12schools.
- 17:13Is
- 17:13there
- 17:13much
- 17:14of
- 17:14an
- 17:14overlap?
- 17:14Like
- 17:15if
- 17:15you
- 17:15do
- 17:15em,
- 17:16does
- 17:16it
- 17:16help
- 17:16you
- 17:17do
- 17:17geography
- 17:17or
- 17:18are
- 17:18they
- 17:18really
- 17:18very
- 17:18discreet
- 17:19subjects?
- 17:20What
- 17:20do
- 17:20you
- 17:20think
- 17:20when
- 17:20it
- 17:21comes
- 17:21to
- 17:21the,
- 17:21the,
- 17:22you
- 17:22know,
- 17:22the
- 17:22complementing
- 17:23of
- 17:23the
- 17:23two
- 17:23of
- 17:23them?
- 17:24Yeah,
- 17:25they
- 17:25do
- 17:25complement
- 17:26well.
- 17:26I
- 17:26think
- 17:26environmental
- 17:27management
- 17:28first
- 17:28and
- 17:29then
- 17:29geography
- 17:29is
- 17:30a
- 17:30good
- 17:30order
- 17:30to
- 17:30do
- 17:31it
- 17:31in.
- 17:32But
- 17:32I
- 17:32think
- 17:32the
- 17:32biggest,
- 17:33biggest
- 17:33difference
- 17:33is
- 17:34environmental
- 17:35management
- 17:35is
- 17:36wide.
- 17:36So
- 17:36there's
- 17:37a
- 17:37lot
- 17:37of
- 17:37different
- 17:38things
- 17:38to
- 17:38know
- 17:39but
- 17:39none
- 17:39of
- 17:39them
- 17:39in
- 17:40massive
- 17:40detail.
- 17:41Whereas
- 17:41geography
- 17:42is
- 17:42zoomed
- 17:43in
- 17:43on
- 17:44just
- 17:44a
- 17:44few
- 17:44different
- 17:45topics
- 17:45and
- 17:45then
- 17:46you
- 17:46really
- 17:46get
- 17:46deeper
- 17:47into
- 17:47them.
- 17:48So
- 17:49there
- 17:49is
- 17:49crossover.
- 17:50But
- 17:51it's
- 17:52like
- 17:52geography
- 17:52deepens
- 17:53the
- 17:53knowledge
- 17:54of
- 17:54EM
- 17:55or
- 17:55deepens
- 17:56your
- 17:56understanding
- 17:57of
- 17:57em.
- 17:57I
- 17:57suppose
- 17:58students
- 17:59do
- 17:59sometimes
- 17:59go
- 18:00geography
- 18:00and
- 18:00then
- 18:01em
- 18:01and
- 18:02that
- 18:02helps
- 18:03a
- 18:03lot
- 18:03because
- 18:03they
- 18:04find
- 18:04the
- 18:04EM
- 18:04sections
- 18:05that
- 18:05they've
- 18:06covered
- 18:06in
- 18:06geography.
- 18:07They

- 18:37it
- 18:37needs

- 19:03geography?
- 19:04That's
- 19:04a
- 19:04good
- 19:05question.
- 19:05It
- 19:06seems
- 19:06to
- 19:06sort
- 19:06of
- 19:07appeal
- 19:07to
- 19:07a
- 19:08wide

- 19:17with
- 19:18the
- 19:18sporty
- 19:19crowd.
- 19:20I'm
- 19:20not
- 19:20sure
- 19:20why
- 19:21that
- 19:21is.
- 19:21I
- 19:21don't
- 19:21know
- 19:21if
- 19:21it's
- 19:22just
- 19:22because
- 19:22it's
- 19:22more
- 19:23physical
- 19:24and
- 19:24the
- 19:24ideas
- 19:25are
- 19:25more
- 19:25physical
- 19:25and
- 19:26concrete
- 19:27or
- 19:28it
- 19:28might
- 19:28just
- 19:28be
- 19:28a
- 19:28completely
- 19:29random
- 19:29thing
- 19:29that,
- 19:30you
- 19:30know,
- 19:30a
- 19:31lot
- 19:31of
- 19:31sporty

- 19:31my
- 19:32geography
- 19:32classes,
- 19:32but
- 19:34there
- 19:34seems
- 19:34to
- 19:34be
- 19:34something,
- 19:35it's
- 19:35very
- 19:35Practical.
- 19:36What
- 19:36I
- 19:37don't
- 19:37get
- 19:37is
- 19:37much
- 19:37crossover
- 19:38between
- 19:39students
- 19:39who

- 19:45be
- 19:45two
- 19:45different
- 19:46ends
- 19:46of

- 19:49So
- 19:49it's
- 19:49definitely
- 19:50much
- 19:50more
- 19:50concrete,
- 19:51closer
- 19:52to
- 19:52science,
- 19:52I
- 19:52guess.
- 19:52Not
- 19:53that
- 19:53I've
- 19:53ever
- 19:53taught
- 19:53science,
- 19:54but

- 20:00science
- 20:00end
- 20:00of

- 20:04and
- 20:04so
- 20:04you
- 20:04do
- 20:05the
- 20:05humanities.
- 20:05Geography

- 20:06be
- 20:06the
- 20:06furthest
- 20:07outreach
- 20:08for

- 20:18sort
- 20:18of
- 20:18naturally
- 20:19suited

- 20:58ones
- 20:58because
- 20:58it's
- 20:59much
- 20:59more.
- 20:59Learn
- 21:00the
- 21:00process,
- 21:01explain

- 21:02The
- 21:02process
- 21:02is
- 21:02always
- 21:03right.
- 21:04And
- 21:04then
- 21:04it's
- 21:05far
- 21:05more
- 21:05subjective
- 21:06on
- 21:06the
- 21:06human
- 21:06geography
- 21:07side.
- 21:07How

- 21:18are
- 21:18particularly
- 21:19horrendous.
- 21:20I
- 21:20think
- 21:21geography
- 21:21paper
- 21:221
- 21:22is
- 21:22the
- 21:22shortest
- 21:23paper

- 24:58of
- 24:58course,

- 24:59weird.
- 25:00But
- 25:00in
- 25:01terms
- 25:01of
- 25:01the
- 25:01actual
- 25:02what

- 25:17for
- 25:17how
- 25:18easy
- 25:18they
- 25:18are.
- 25:18Now,
- 25:19obviously,
- 25:19bear
- 25:19in
- 25:19mind
- 25:19that
- 25:20obviously
- 25:20some

- 25:23easy,
- 25:23other
- 25:23children
- 25:23will
- 25:23find
- 25:24maths

- 25:37need
- 25:37to

- 25:38The
- 25:38mass
- 25:38is
- 25:38really
- 25:38manageable.
- 25:39Then
- 25:39at
- 25:39the
- 25:40other
- 25:40end
- 25:40of
- 25:40the
- 25:40spectrum
- 25:40I've
- 25:41got
- 25:41things
- 25:41like
- 25:42history,
- 25:43which
- 25:43is
- 25:43very,
- 25:43very
- 25:44content
- 25:44heavy.
- 25:45I've

- 25:46got
- 25:46things
- 25:46like.
- 25:46Which
- 25:47is
- 25:47controversial,
- 25:47but
- 25:48I've
- 25:48also

- 25:48like
- 25:48religious
- 25:49studies,
- 25:49which
- 25:49takes
- 25:50a
- 25:50kind

- 25:52brain
- 25:53that
- 25:53is
- 25:53able
- 25:54to
- 25:54deal
- 25:54with
- 25:54back
- 25:55and
- 25:55forth
- 25:55and
- 25:55nuance
- 25:56and
- 25:56hold
- 25:56different
- 25:56arguments
- 25:57in
- 25:57its
- 25:57head.
- 25:57But
- 25:58then
- 25:58obviously
- 25:58things
- 25:59like
- 26:00further
- 26:00maths
- 26:01or
- 26:01whatever

- 26:03GCSE
- 26:03I

- 26:04So
- 26:05you
- 26:05know
- 26:06those
- 26:06kind
- 26:06of
- 26:07things.
- 26:07Where
- 26:07would
- 26:07you
- 26:08place
- 26:08geography?
- 26:09Bear
- 26:09in
- 26:09mind
- 26:09obviously
- 26:10that
- 26:10all
- 26:10children
- 26:10have

- 26:11sets.
- 26:11Whereabouts
- 26:12would
- 26:12you
- 26:12place
- 26:12geography
- 26:13on
- 26:13that
- 26:13spectrum?
- 26:14I
- 26:14think
- 26:15geography
- 26:15is
- 26:15actually.
- 26:16It
- 26:17might
- 26:17be
- 26:17bang
- 26:18in
- 26:18the
- 26:18middle.
- 26:19I
- 26:19agree
- 26:19with
- 26:19you
- 26:20that
- 26:20environmental
- 26:21management,
- 26:21marine
- 26:21science
- 26:22are
- 26:23really
- 26:23nice
- 26:24GCSEs
- 26:25to
- 26:25get
- 26:25started
- 26:25in.
- 26:26There's
- 26:26some
- 26:26technical
- 26:27stuff
- 26:27in
- 26:27there.
- 26:28There's
- 26:28a
- 26:28bit
- 26:28more
- 26:29maths
- 26:29than
- 26:29geography,
- 26:30which
- 26:30will
- 26:30put
- 26:31some
- 26:31students
- 26:31off.
- 26:32But
- 26:33then
- 26:33there's
- 26:33no
- 26:34sort

- 26:37So
- 26:37in
- 26:37a
- 26:37sort
- 26:37of
- 26:38literacy
- 26:39sense,
- 26:40I

- 26:42the
- 26:42easier

- 26:45the
- 26:46other
- 26:46end.
- 26:47But
- 26:47I
- 26:47think
- 26:47geography
- 26:48is
- 26:48nice
- 26:49in
- 26:49the

- 26:49because

- 40:29wasn't
- 40:29going

- 40:30so
- 40:30I
- 40:30think
- 40:30it
- 40:31was
- 40:31nearly
- 40:31ready.
- 40:32And
- 40:32then
- 40:33since

- 40:34it
- 40:34was
- 40:34definitely
- 40:34put
- 40:35on

- 40:37rumors
- 40:37that
- 40:38they're
- 40:38going
- 40:38to
- 40:38bring
- 40:38it
- 40:39back,
- 40:39but
- 40:39it
- 40:39swallows
- 40:41Schrodinger's
- 40:42causes.
- 40:44It
- 40:44could
- 40:44be
- 40:44alive.
- 40:45It
- 40:45might
- 40:45not
- 40:45be.
- 40:46Until
- 40:47someone
- 40:47looks
- 40:47inside
- 40:48the
- 40:48head
- 40:48of
- 40:48Keir
- 40:48Starmer,
- 40:49we

- 40:51want
- 40:51to
- 40:51have

- 40:53sort
- 40:53of
- 40:53labor
- 40:53policy
- 40:54that
- 40:54I've
- 40:54missed
- 40:54out
- 40:54on?
- 40:55I
- 40:55don't
- 40:55know.
- 40:55I
- 40:56think
- 40:56that
- 40:56I.
- 40:57I
- 40:57think
- 40:57originally
- 40:58it
- 40:58was,
- 40:59you
- 40:59know,
- 40:59we're
- 40:59not
- 40:59going
- 40:59to
- 41:00bring
- 41:00anything
- 41:00through
- 41:00until
- 41:01we've
- 41:01fully
- 41:01examined
- 41:02it
- 41:03and
- 41:03got
- 41:04our
- 41:04committee
- 41:04to
- 41:04form
- 41:05another
- 41:05committee.
- 41:07I
- 41:07don't
- 41:07know
- 41:08who
- 41:08knows
- 41:08what's
- 41:09going
- 41:09on,
- 41:09but
- 41:09hopefully,
- 41:10I
- 41:10mean,
- 41:11the
- 41:11details
- 41:11that
- 41:12were
- 41:12out
- 41:12for
- 41:12it
- 41:12looked
- 41:13really,
- 41:13really
- 41:13interesting.
- 41:14And
- 41:14I
- 41:15think
- 41:15from
- 41:15what
- 41:15I
- 41:16can
- 41:16gather,
- 41:17a
- 41:17lot
- 41:17of
- 41:18the
- 41:18work's
- 41:18been
- 41:18done.
- 41:19It
- 41:19felt
- 41:20like
- 41:20it
- 41:20was
- 41:20just
- 41:21about
- 41:21to
- 41:21be
- 41:21pushed
- 41:21out
- 41:22the
- 41:22gate
- 41:22and
- 41:22then
- 41:22was
- 41:22stopped.
- 41:23So
- 41:23I
- 41:23can't
- 41:23see
- 41:24any
- 41:24reason
- 41:24why
- 41:24it
- 41:24shouldn't
- 41:25come
- 41:25forward.
- 41:25Unless,
- 41:26of
- 41:26course,
- 41:26the
- 41:26whole
- 41:27thing
- 41:27was
- 41:27just
- 41:27filled
- 41:27with
- 41:28Tory
- 41:28policy
- 41:29and
- 41:29that's
- 41:29why
- 41:30the
- 41:30paper
- 41:31covers
- 41:31dinosaurs.
- 41:32Dinosaurs.
- 41:35So
- 41:35is
- 41:36there
- 41:36anything
- 41:36else
- 41:36on
- 41:37the
- 41:37horizon
- 41:37when
- 41:38it
- 41:38comes
- 41:38to
- 41:38humanities
- 41:39subjects?
- 41:39That
- 41:39we
- 41:40need
- 41:40to
- 41:40know
- 41:40about.
- 41:40You
- 41:40mentioned
- 41:41about
- 41:41em
- 41:41having
- 41:42a.
- 41:42An
- 41:42overhaul.
- 41:43Is
- 41:43there
- 41:43anything
- 41:43else
- 41:44we
- 41:44need

- 41:53mean
- 41:53there's
- 41:54not.
- 41:54Because
