In these videos for primary schools De-Graft Mensah and Rhys Stephenson visit locations around the UK to explore key aspects of the geography curriculum with the help of local children.

These short films are suitable for teaching geography at KS2 in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, and 2nd level in Scotland.

Please note that in November 2022 the United Nations declared that the global human population reached 8 billion people. These films was made prior to November 2022 and so population statistics may be out of date.
