Hub Cities and Migrant Flows (Edexcel A-level Globalisation)

A free, complete one-hour lesson for Pearson Edexcel A-level Geography (9GE0), Topic 3: Globalisation, specification points 3.5b and 3.5c, with skill (5). Who gains more from migration to global hubs: the countries migrants leave, or the hubs they move to?

• map the largest migrant corridors with proportional flow arrows;
• sort the costs and benefits for host and source countries (London, Singapore, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, India, Nepal);
• research one migration corridor from official data;
• then plan a full 12-mark Assess answer.

The full series: this lesson comes from my Globalisation series for Edexcel A-level: 18 lessons with PowerPoints, resource sheets, teacher notes, a 32-mark assessment and 40 annotated example answers (C and A* for every 12- and 20-mark question; 2/4 and 4/4 for every 4-mark question). If it works for you, the rest of the series covers:

• the global shift, Ogoniland and Teesside, Mumbai, global culture and Papua New Guinea in the same enquiry question;
• development and inequality data, tensions over migration and control, and localism and ethical consumption, with a 20-mark Evaluate.
