Population change in Y6

Sep 15, 2026Geography

Our current geography topic, to begin Y6, is identifying and understanding population change. We used an atlas to identify which countries are densely populated and which countries are sparsely populated. We were amazed to learn that the global population is approximately 8.3 billion people and the UK has a population of just over 69 million people. We have discussed and predicted what we think will happen to future populations and justified our decisions.
