Great news for KS 1 teachers from 2014 you can study a non-European country of your choice
Key Stage1 (National Curriculum Draft 2013)
Understand geographical similarities and differences through studying the human and physical geography of a small area of the United Kingdom, and of a contrasting non-European country

Why not generate new enthusiasm in the classroom with an artefact box or a school bag? This could be supplemented with global readers and newspapers.

With the artefact boxes and school bags you can encourage your children to get the authentic feel of another place. The newspapers contain all the factual information about the place in a style which your children will enjoy reading. The global readers (and CD version) follow the lives of children in that place.
