Geography - Facilities
The Geography Department at Strathallan has 4 teaching classrooms and 2 rooms for books, equipment and computers. We are located in the far north-west reaches of the School grounds, which gives us great views from the classrooms north across Strathearn and south to the Ochils.
The Department is well equipped with a wide range of resources including textbooks, journals, a Sixth Form library, videos, fieldwork equipment, an automatic weather- monitoring station, networked computer, TVs, VCRs and Slide Projector. There is also a Met. Office weather station in the School Grounds, which is maintained by a former member of staff. We plan to increase the range of CD-roms in the near future as well as computer hardware to make the best possible use of the huge potential of Information Technology in the teaching and learning Geography.
There is information on University courses in the wide range of subjects related to Geography and we endeavour to keep up with our ever-changing World by displaying recent newspaper articles on topics relevant to the subject.
