The Changing Economic World

A complete AQA GCSE Geography unit covering The Changing Economic World from Paper 2 of the AQA specification. This fully resourced scheme explores global development patterns, the development gap and methods of measuring development, alongside the Demographic Transition Model. Students investigate strategies to reduce the development gap with a tourism case study in Jamaica before studying Nigeria as a Newly Emerging Economy, examining TNCs, aid, environmental challenges and quality of life. The unit then focuses on the UK’s changing economy, including deindustrialisation, the post-industrial economy, science and business parks, rural change, the North–South divide and transport infrastructure. Includes case studies, exam-style practice, and an end-of-unit assessment—fully aligned to the AQA GCSE Geography specification.
