1 Assessment Schedule Year /6 Term Knowledge Using and applying Grade Criteria Autumn 1 Assessment window October Tectonic Natural hazards pose major risks to people and property. Definition of a natural hazard. Types of natural hazard. Factors affecting hazard risk Earthquakes and volcanic eruptions are the result of physical Global distribution of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions and their relationship to plate boundaries. The physical processes taking place at different types of plate boundaries (constructive, destructive and conservative) that lead to earthquakes and volcanic activity. The effects of and responses to tectonic hazards vary between areas of contrasting levels of wealth. Management can reduce the effects of tectonic hazards. A case study of two countries of contrasting levels of wealth to show the primary and secondary effects of, and the immediate and longterm responses to, a tectonic hazard. Reasons why people continue to live in areas at risk from tectonic hazards. How monitoring, prediction, protection and planning can reduce the risks from a tectonic hazard. Autumn 2 Assessment window December Tectonic Grade Criteria

2 Natural hazards pose major risks to people and property. Earthquakes and volcanic eruptions are the result of physical The effects of and responses to tectonic hazards vary between areas of contrasting levels of wealth. Management can reduce the effects of tectonic hazards. Section A: The challenge of natural hazards: Tropical storms Definition of a natural hazard. Types of natural hazard. Factors affecting hazard risk Global distribution of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions and their relationship to plate boundaries. The physical processes taking place at different types of plate boundaries (constructive, destructive and conservative) that lead to earthquakes and volcanic activity. A case study of two countries of contrasting levels of wealth to show the primary and secondary effects of, and the immediate and longterm responses to, a tectonic hazard. Reasons why people continue to live in areas at risk from tectonic hazards. How monitoring, prediction, protection and planning can reduce the risks from a tectonic hazard. Students should tropical storms (hurricanes, cyclones, typhoons) develop as a result of particular physical conditions.

3 Spring 1 Assessment Window February Extreme weather in the UK The UK is affected by a number of weather hazards. They should also tropical storms have significant effects on people and environments. Types of weather hazard experienced in the UK. An example of a recent extreme weather event in the UK to illustrate: causes social, economic and environmental impacts how management strategies can reduce risk. Grade Criteria Extreme weather events in the UK have impacts on human activity. Evidence that weather is becoming more extreme in the UK Climate change Climate change is the result of natural and human factors. Evidence for climate change from the beginning of the Quaternary period to the present day. Possible causes of climate change: natural factors orbital changes, volcanic activity and solar output human factors use of fossil fuels, agriculture and deforestation. Managing climate change involves both mitigation (reducing causes) and adaptation (responding to change). Managing the impacts of climate change: mitigation alternative energy production, carbon capture, planting trees, international agreements adaptation change in

4 agricultural systems, managing water supply, reducing risk from rising sea levels. Section A: The challenge of natural hazards: Tropical storms Students should tropical storms (hurricanes, cyclones, typhoons) develop as a result of particular physical conditions. They should also tropical storms have significant effects on people and environments. Spring 2 Assessment Window March 2016 Management can reduce the effects of tectonic hazards UK physical landscapes Reasons why people continue to live in areas at risk from tectonic hazards. How monitoring, prediction, protection and planning can reduce the risks from a tectonic hazard. Location of major upland/lowland areas and river systems. The UK s relief covers a range of diverse landscapes. Grade Criteria Coastal landscapes in the UK The coast is shaped by a number of physical Wave types and characteristics. Coastal processes: weathering processes mechanical, chemical mass movement sliding and slumping erosion hydraulic power, abrasion, attrition and solution transportation longshore drift, traction, saltation,

5 suspension and solution deposition why sediment is deposited in coastal areas. Distinctive coastal landforms are the result of rock type, structure and physical from erosion headlands and bays, cliffs and wave cut platforms, caves, arches and stacks. from deposition beaches, sand dunes, spits and bars. An example of a section of coastline in the UK to identify its major landforms of erosion and deposition. Different management strategies can be used to protect coastlines from the effects of physical The costs and benefits of the following management strategies: hard engineering sea walls, rock armour, gabions and groynes soft engineering beach nourishment and reprofiling, dune regeneration managed retreat coastal realignment and monitoring. A case study of a coastal management scheme in the UK to show: the reasons for management the measures taken the resulting effects and possible conflicts.

T They should also tropical storms have significant effects on people and environments. he effects of and responses to tectonic hazards vary between areas of contrasting levels of wealth. A case study of two countries of contrasting levels of wealth to show the primary and secondary effects of, and the immediate and longterm responses to, a tectonic hazard. Summer 1 Assessment Window May River landscapes in the UK The shape of river valleys changes as rivers flow downstream. The long profile and changing cross profile of a river and its valley. Fluvial processes: erosion hydraulic action, abrasion, attrition, solution, vertical and lateral erosion transportation traction, saltation, suspension and solution deposition why rivers deposit sediment. Grade Criteria Distinctive fluvial landforms result from different physical from erosion interlocking spurs, waterfalls and gorges.

7 from erosion and deposition meanders and ox bow lakes. from deposition levées, flood plains and estuaries. An example of a river valley in the UK to identify its major landforms of erosion and deposition. Different management strategies can be used to protect river landscapes from the effects of flooding. How physical and human factors increase the flood risk precipitation, geology, relief and land use. The use of hydrographs to show the relationship between precipitation and discharge. The costs and benefits of the following management strategies: hard engineering dams and reservoirs, straightening, embankments, flood relief channels soft engineering flood warnings and preparation, flood plain zoning. A case study of a flood management scheme in the UK to show: why the scheme was required the measures taken the social, economic and environmental issues involved.

8 Distinctive coastal landforms are the result of rock type, structure and physical from erosion headlands and bays, cliffs and wave cut platforms, caves, arches and stacks. from deposition beaches, sand dunes, spits and bars. An example of a section of coastline in the UK to identify its major landforms of erosion and deposition. Natural hazards pose major risks to people and property. Earthquakes and volcanic eruptions are the result of physical Definition of a natural hazard. Types of natural hazard. Factors affecting hazard risk Global distribution of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions and their relationship to plate boundaries. The physical processes taking place at different types of plate boundaries (constructive, destructive and conservative) that lead to earthquakes and volcanic activity. Summer 2 Assessment window July Section C: The living world Ecosystems Ecosystems exist at a range of scales and involve the interaction An example of a smallscale UK ecosystem to illustrate the concept Grade Criteria

9 between living and nonliving components Global atmospheric circulation is the main factor determining the distribution of largescale global ecosystems. of inter relationships within a natural system, an understanding of producers, consumers, decomposers, food chain, food web and nutrient cycling. The balance between components. The impact of changing one component on the ecosystem. General features of global atmospheric circulation pressure and wind patterns. The distribution of large scale global ecosystems and an overview of their characteristics Tropical rainforests Tropical rainforests have distinctive environmental characteristics. Deforestation creates a number of issues. Characteristics of a tropical rainforest climate, water, soils, plants and animals. How vegetation adapts to the physical conditions. Changing rates of deforestation. A case study of a tropical rainforest to illustrate: causes of deforestation subsistence and commercial farming, logging, road building, mineral extraction, energy development, settlement, population growth impacts and issues resulting from deforestation soil

10 erosion, loss of biodiversity, contribution to climate change, economic development. Tropical rainforests need to be managed to be sustainable. Different management strategies can be used to protect coastlines from the effects of physical Why the tropical rainforest environment should be protected. Strategies used to manage the rainforest sustainably selective logging and replanting, conservation and education, ecotourism and international agreements about the use of tropical hardwoods, debt reduction. The costs and benefits of the following management strategies: hard engineering sea walls, rock armour, gabions and groynes soft engineering beach nourishment and reprofiling, dune regeneration managed retreat coastal realignment and monitoring.
