| book description |

This book brings together recent papers which make important contributions to understanding and developing primary geography. It considers primary teachersâ€™ and trainee teachersâ€™ knowledge of geography; how the primary curriculum uses geography; teachersâ€™ planning of geography teaching; the way in which aspects of geography are taught; what high quality geography might look like; and childrenâ€™s geographical understanding and voices. Though geography curricula change quite often in countries around the world, the core matters noted above remain of constant and vital importance. The papers in this book either concern research with primary teachers and children, or consider key concerns in primary geography, providing important perspectives for thinking about future developments in geography teaching and curriculum initiatives in primary schools. This is a stimulating and enticing collection written by leading exponents of, and experts in, primary geography education. This book was originally published as a special issue of Education 3-13.
