AQA A Level Geography Changing Places workbook

I originally put this 32-page booklet together for my own A-Level geographers because I wanted everything for this topic in one place—no more lost handouts or chaotic folders! It’s been an absolute game-changer for my teaching and their revision.

This is a complete, ready-to-print student workbook covering absolutely every specification point for the AQA A-Level Geography Changing Places topic. I’ve designed this so it isn’t just a reading exercise. It’s an active working document that trains them on the exact exam skills they need while they learn the content.
What’s inside the 32 pages?

• Structured Content Notes: Broken down clearly and mapped directly to the AQA spec, covering everything from the nature of place to regeneration and inequality.
• Active Tasks: Built-in activities to apply knowledge, such as analyzing the transition from space to place, categorising endogenous and exogenous factors, and evaluating media representations.
• Case Study Frameworks: Dedicated spaces and detailed prompts for students to build out their two required place studies—one local/familiar place and one contrasting/less familiar place.
• Retrieval Practice Quizzes: End-of-topic recall quizzes covering concepts, processes, change, identity, and inequality to test knowledge without their notes.
• Exam Practice: A dedicated section with 4, 6, and 20-mark essay questions. I’ve included specific examiner guidance, mark scheme breakdowns, and dedicated essay planning spaces to train their skills.
• Synoptic Links: Clear signposts connecting this topic to others in the spec (like Urban Issues, Global Governance, and the Water & Carbon cycles) to prep them for those tricky Paper 2 Section B cross-topic questions.
• Complete Glossary: Dedicated tables for all the key human geography terms they need to know, from Topophilia to Commodification of place.
• Revision Checklist: A full tick-box checklist mapped to the spec so students can track their confidence levels.

Who is this for?

Perfect for delivering the topic from scratch, using as a massive revision guide before mocks, or setting as structured independent cover work. Just print as a booklet and you’re good to go!
