A Level Geography Quantative skills booklet
This is a complete, ready-to-print student workbook covering the quantitative, map, and fieldwork skills required specifically for AQA A-Level Geography (but is applicable to most exam boards).
I’ve designed this so it isn’t just a reading exercise. It’s an active working document that walks them step-by-step through the math and the exact exam interpretation skills they need.
What’s inside the booklet?
Step-by-Step Statistical Tests: Complete, easy-to-follow breakdowns of Spearman’s Rank, Chi-Squared, and Standard Deviation. Includes fully worked examples and guides on using critical value tables for significance testing.
Core Maths Skills: Clear guides and practice for calculating central tendency (Mean, Median, Mode), measures of dispersion (Range, IQR), percentage change, and index numbers.
Graph & Map Skills: Guidance on choosing the right graph, drawing lines of best fit, calculating scale, and interpreting choropleth, proportional symbol, dot, and isoline maps.
Fieldwork & Sampling: Dedicated sections on practical skills like calculating river discharge, interpreting environmental quality surveys (EQS), justifying sampling methods (random, systematic, stratified), and evaluating data reliability/validity.
Practice Questions & Answers: Built-in exam-style practice questions for every single skill, complete with a self-assessment answer key at the end of each section so students can check their own working.
Quick Reference Formula Sheet: A handy cheat sheet at the back with every formula, critical value table, and statistical rule they need at a glance.
Revision Checklist: A full tick-box checklist mapped to the spec’s skills requirements so students can track their confidence levels.
Who is this for?
Perfect for delivering the skills component from scratch, using as a reference guide for their NEA (Independent Investigation), handing out as a massive revision booklet before Paper 1 and Paper 2 mocks, or setting as structured independent cover work. Just print as a booklet and you’re good to go! Provided in PDF and word format.
