Earlier this week our Year 13 A Level Geographers were at Cresswell Dunes on the Northumberland Coast to collect primary data for their non-examined assessment (NEA). They were measuring the profiles of the dunes, studying the ecology and diversity of the plant life, and collecting soil samples to take back to school and test in the lab. It was a sunny and calm day and they managed to collect lots of data!
They will be going on another field trip on Friday to study regeneration of the Ouseburn area in Newcastle city centre.
