This resource covers key content for 1.4.3, focusing on how globalisation influences patterns of economic and social development across the world. It is designed to support students in analysing both the opportunities created by globalisation and the inequalities it can reinforce.

Students explore how globalisation can drive economic growth through increased trade, foreign direct investment (FDI) and the expansion of transnational corporations. There is a clear focus on how countries integrated into global networks often experience rising incomes, improved infrastructure and greater access to goods and services.

The resource also examines the social impacts of globalisation, including improvements in education, healthcare and living standards in some regions. Students consider how flows of information, technology and cultural exchange can contribute to development and modernisation.

A key element of this section is understanding uneven development. Students analyse how the benefits of globalisation are not evenly distributed, both between countries and within them. There is a strong focus on the concept of a ‘global core and periphery’, with some regions becoming more connected and prosperous while others remain marginalised.

The resource also addresses the negative impacts of globalisation, including environmental degradation, exploitation of labour, and economic dependency. Students evaluate how globalisation can increase vulnerability to global economic shocks and widen inequalities.

There is a strong emphasis on evaluation throughout, with students required to assess the extent to which globalisation promotes development versus reinforcing inequality. The resource supports this through case study links, structured arguments and exam-style questions.

It is suitable for lesson delivery, revision, or targeted support on this section of the specification.

iAL Edexcel Geography - Unit 1 Topic 2 Going Global (BUNDLE)

This bundle provides full coverage of Topic 2: Going Global, bringing together all six sections of the specification to deliver a comprehensive understanding of globalisation and its impacts on the world. It is structured to move students from core concepts of globalisation, through the systems that drive it, to its social, economic and spatial consequences. The bundle begins with globalisation, networks and trade (1.4.1), where students develop a foundational understanding of how global connections are formed through flows of goods, services, capital and information. This is extended through global organisations (1.4.2), examining the role of institutions and transnational corporations in shaping global economic systems. Students then explore globalisation’s impact on development (1.4.3), analysing how globalisation creates both opportunities and inequalities across different countries and regions. This leads into global population trends (1.4.4), where demographic patterns, population structures and migration are linked to development and global change. The global migration (1.4.5) section builds on this by examining the causes, patterns and impacts of migration, with a clear focus on how globalisation has increased the scale and complexity of population movements. Finally, world urbanisation (1.4.6) explores the growth of cities, megacities and global urban networks, linking urban change directly to globalisation processes. Across the bundle, there is a clear progression: Understanding globalisation and global systems Analysing patterns, flows and connections Applying knowledge to development, population and migration Evaluating impacts, inequalities and future challenges All resources are closely aligned to the Edexcel specification and include clear explanations, case studies, data interpretation and exam-style questions. There is a strong emphasis on developing analytical and evaluative skills, particularly for extended responses. This bundle is suitable for full topic delivery or revision, providing complete coverage of Topic 2 and preparing students for high-level exam performance.
